==Biography==
Brown is a ninth generation traditional potter, the son of Horace Vincent "Jug" Brown and
Hettie Mae Stewart Brown. He learned his art in childhood but had to give it up following the deaths of his older brother Jack and his father in 1964 and 1965. He worked in logging for nearly twenty years but then aided by his wife Sandra, his uncle Gerald Stewart and other family members was able to return to art in the early 1980s, building his studio from an old barn. Gerald in particular helped him re-learn techniques he had forgotten during the years in logging and it was Gerald who went with him to the Smithsonian Festival of American Folklife. Sandra and Jerry continue to work together. She is responsible for much of the glazing, finishing and marketing, as well as much of the sculpture of the faces on the face jugs. She has the reputation of being "the most active female folk potter in Alabama".〔
