Ian W. Brown was born in 1932 in Montreal, Quebec. He took his first two degrees, BA (Hist), 1953 and MA (Hist), 1959, at McGill University and his PhD (History) at Lehigh University in 1965. Brown taught History at Prince of Wales College, Prince Edward Island (now the University of Prince Edward Island) and served as its Chair of the Social Sciences Division until 1968. Brown served as Acting Principal at Algoma University College (AUC) for five years (1968-1973) and taught History at AUC until his retirement in 1990. Beloved by his peers and especially by his many students from Prince of Wales College and Algoma University College for both his administrative and teaching skills, "Doc Brown" has a class room (East Wing 205) dedicated in his honour at Algoma University.
