Dr. Morris Brown | Voice over actor

Dr. Morris Brown, born in 1948 in Anniston, Alabama, has led a life characterized by resilience and dedication to social justice. As the fourth child in a family of eight, his early experiences in a segregated South profoundly influenced his path. His mother, transitioning from sharecropping and domestic work to a nurse's aide, and his father, a laborer and Baptist preacher, instilled values of hard work and community service in him from a young age. In his youth, Dr. Brown witnessed firsthand the harsh realities of racism and the struggle for civil rights in Alabama, including tragic events like the murder of Emmett Till and Medgar Evers and the violent opposition to the Freedom Riders in his hometown. These experiences shaped his resolve to pursue a career that could offer him a platform for advocacy and change. Dr. Brown's academic journey began at Cobb Avenue High School, where he excelled and served as class president, finishing third. He then attended Knoxville College, a historically black college in Tennessee, where he earned a Bachelor of Science in Biology. His leadership skills flourished during college, notably through involvement with the Omega Psi Phi fraternity and student government roles. Choosing to follow a medical career, Dr. Brown was accepted into Meharry Medical School, one of the country's historically black medical schools. His medical education there was robust and filled with valuable research and clinical experiences. After graduating in 1974, he joined the United States Air Force Medical Corps, serving as the Director of Aerospace Medicine. This role allowed him to travel extensively and provide medical care at various remote locations, honing his skills in diverse and challenging environments. After his service in the Air Force, Dr. Brown helped rebuild Central State University's campus after it was devastated by a tornado. His military experience was invaluable in securing the necessary funds to reconstruct the community/student health center, a testament to his capability to manage large-scale projects. Dr. Brown later embarked on a long and rewarding career in family medicine after completing a residency at Wright State Medical School/Miami Valley Hospital. He dedicated 35 years to addressing healthcare disparities, mainly focusing on marginalized communities in the Miami Valley area. Thanks to his leadership and a committed team of healthcare professionals, his practice grew significantly, supporting over 10,000 patients. Retiring in 2018, Dr. Brown did not step away from his community responsibilities. He continues to lead by example through his work with the nonprofit organization Above the Law, which aims to reform the criminal justice system and provide better futures for nonviolent youth. He also contributes his expertise to All Ways Legal LLC as a Certified Medical Legal Consultant. He oversees Central Solutions LLC, where he brings innovative logistics and commercial maintenance approaches. Dr. Brown has been honored with numerous accolades throughout his career, including the Commander's Award for Healthcare and the Omega Man of the Year Award, reflecting his profound impact on his patients and the broader community. His dedication extends beyond his professional endeavors, as he actively participates in NAACP initiatives and engages in hobbies like chess, jazz, and art, continually seeking ways to enrich his community and advocate for justice.
