Brown saved lives as an ER doctor in New Hampshire and Maine for nearly 20 years. With a bachelor’s degree in engineering physics and a master’s degree in biomedical engineering from Cornell, along with a Ph.D in biophysics from the University of Illinois, he is uniquely qualified to create Hunter Miller, the protagonist in “The Master of Perceptions Series.”
