Brian P. McRoberts (d. 1995) was an architectural history student at Virginia Commonwealth University. He studied early American architecture with Dr. Charles Brownell and served as his undergraduate teaching assistant (1994-1995). In the fall of 1996, he would have been the first recipient of the Bess T. Brownell Assistantship in Architectural History. However, he died unexpectedly in the fall of 1995. In honor of McRoberts' memory, Dr. Brownell dedicated the Fourth Annual VCU Architectural Symposium in the Fall of 1996 to him.
