	Memoir-Runof1889
		Brown was a man about 55 years of age, well educated and refined, who had met with reverses in fortune and with his family was seeking a home in the new country.
		Brown had decided that his daughters were to go in the one-horse buggy and drive a mule that was gentle and he didn’t think would get frightened, and Nellie was to take the first claim over the line.
		Brown came over to where his daughters were in a few minutes and and taking the mule and buggy went in search of him a farm, leaving the girls alone.

	The John Brown Archive
		John Brown’s 1859 raid on the federal arsenal at Harpers Ferry and subsequent execution galvanized the nation; abolitionists celebrated him as a martyr to the anti-slavery cause while southern whites denounced him and his northern supporters and formed local militias to guard against slave uprisings of the kind Brown had hoped to foment.
		Brown was rare among white abolitionists in his insistence on full equality between fls and whites; throughout his adult life he interacted socially with African Americans on an egalitarian basis to a degree unprecedented in antebellum America.
		Brown was known to some as "Osawatomie" or "Pottawatomie" Brown because in 1856 he led a deadly attack on a small proslavery settlement near Osawatomie Creek (alternately known as Pottwatomie Creek) in the Kansas territory, where the expansion of slavery was fiercely contested during the 1850s.

	Barnum Brown - EvoWiki
		Barnum Brown (1873-1963): One of the most famous figures in paleontology, Barnum Brown was a collector whose accomplishments are difficult to adequately stress.
		Hired by Henry Fairfield Osborn to collect for the AMNH, the marvelous dinosaur skeletons which grace the New York institution are largely the fruits of Brown's labor, and they started flowing into the museum in 1910.
		Brown collected the most famous Tyrannosaurus specimens of all (second perhaps only to "Sue" of the Field Museum in Chicago), and described both Leptoceratops gracilis and Anchiceratops longirostris.

	The New York Times Magazine How Tina Brown Moves Magazines Text
		Brown's critics - and they are many, even if most do not want to be identified - like to attribute her success to a canny commercial instinct and to an importation of British standards of journalism, which is to say hardly any at all.
		Brown began her career as a "girl reporter" for Punch, writing sly, highbrow accounts of assorted lowbrow adventures, among them an attempt to become a nude centerfold, a date with a rented beau and a one-night stint as a go-go dancer named Union Jackie.
		Brown is intensely aware of the criticisms of her work and even guides the conversation around to them at several points, prodding me to tell her anything negative I have heard.

	Barnum Brown (1873 to 1963)
		In 1902 in Montana, Brown made the fossil discovery that he is most famous for, Tyrannosaurus rex.
		Although Brown preferred to do field work, rather than be confined indoors studying his fossils, he still gained a great amount of fame.
		Brown was also famous for his own version of the "Bone Wars." He and the sons of Charles Sternberg often competed for fossils, but it was always in a friendly way, and the rivalry never escalated to the point seen between E. Cope and O. Marsh.

		Barnum Brown had already expressed an interest in the largest specimens because they would make spectacular exhibits.
		Nevertheless, despite the precedents set in 1937, it was Brown's rather sensationalistic approach and lack of supporting scientific publications that ultimately shrouded the evidence in exaggerated and anecdotal interpretation.
		Although Brown's approach was understandable in the context of his role as collector and public relations spokesman for the American Museum of Natural History, his preoccupation with large tracks and trackway segments that showed monstrous steps glossed over the fact that other paleontologists had already begun making reasonable interpretations of the evidence.

		Barnum Brown (1873—1963) was one of the recipients of such a world.
		Brown’s collecting efforts were part of a larger museum directive set up by Henry Fairfield Osborn (1857—1935), director of the American Museum of Natural History: ‘vertebrate palaeontology served a social objective: to educate and entertain the public’ and would sustain the ‘fieldwork and research in vertebrate palaeontology’.
		One of the many significant discoveries by Barnum Brown occurred in 1902 in central Montana.

		Twelve gigantic prehistoric animals, dinosaurs that roamed lakes and swamps of 125 million years ago, have been discovered by Dr. Barnum Brown, curator of fossil reptiles of the American Museum of Natural History, New York, some 25 miles east of Greybull, Wyo., in the foothills of the Big Horn Mountains.
		At present, the dinosaur remains are simply a large pile of loose bones, but when assembled eventually as museum exhibits their skeletons will probably show that the sauropod dinosaurs, believed to belong to a hitherto unknown species, ranged in size from 25 to 40 feet in length and from 10 to 14 feet in height.
		Brown, as head of the American Museum-Sinclair dinosaur expedition, has been excavating in the vicinity of Keyhole Canyon since the early part of June, and these excavations are now producing dramatic and surprising results.

		Barnum was found to contain about 30 percent to 50 percent of the lower jaw, and the only vertebrae piece to be found in the collection was a centrum either from the number four or number five vertebrae.
		In addition to their possible connection with Brown's discovery, these T. rex fossils also were found to contain coprolites, fossilized remains of the dinosaur's last meal.

	Letter from Brian Rihner - May 2, 2002
		Brown’s “An Introduction to the New Testament” gives an even closer look at the Jesus Seminar in his Appendix I: The Historical Jesus.
		The session dealing with the authenticity of Jesus’ predictions of his passion and death was dominated by the initial refusal of most of the participants to allow the possibility that Jesus could have spoken of his impending death by virtue of “super-ordinary” powers: accordingly they voted fl on eleven synoptic passion predictions.
		The voting Brown is referring to is a color-coded bead process: red = Jesus undoubtedly said this or something very much like it; pink = probably he said something like this; gray = the ideas are his even though he did not say this; fl = he did not say it (Brown, 820).
