Some of his work appeared over the pseudonyms John Evans, Alexander Blade, Lawrence Chandler, Ivar Jorgensen, and Lee Francis. Beginning in 1942, Browne worked as managing editor for Ziff-Davis publications on ''Amazing Stories'' and ''Fantastic Adventures'', both under Raymond A. Palmer's editorship. When Palmer left the magazines in 1949, Browne took over in January 1950. Browne ended the publication of Richard Shaver's Shaver Mystery and oversaw the change in ''Amazing'' from a pulp magazine to a digest. He left the magazines in 1956 to move to Hollywood.
