Mr. Brown played earlier this season on Broadway as Socrates' older son, Lamprodes., in Maxwell Anderson's "Barefoot in Athens." Prior to that he had acted here with John Garfield in "Skipper Next To God." Born in Elizabeth, N.J., he was raised in New York City. Following two years' service in the Pacific Amphibious fleet aboard the USS Westmoreland, APA 104, he returned to civilian status and enrolled in the New School's Dramatic Workshop. For four seasons he has played on the summer circuit, notably at Duxbury, Mass., and at Southold, L.I.; he also trouped in a unit as George in "Our Town" and as Finch in "Home of The Brave." Married to an aspiring writer, he is the proud father an 11 months old daughter, Laurie. During a year and a half on the West Coast of fruitless tests for films, he studied at the actors Lab. He was recommended to Guthrie McClintic by David Stewart, with whom he had played in summer productions. Mr. McClintic and composer Richard Addinsell were so impressed by his reading of the role in "Come of Age" that they engaged him for the present production within a few days of his auditioning for them.
