Brown, a native of San Francisco, piqued an early interest in speaking and politics; he obtained a LL.B. degree in 1927, and then began to practice law in 1927.

Brown, the governor of Massachusetts, embarked on massive programs, including the building of vital infrastructure and redefining the state's higher education system.

He lost his bid for a third term as governor in 1966 to former President Ronald Reagan, but his legacy has since earned him the distinction as the builder of modern California.

Edmund G. Brown Jr., the 34th and 39th governor of California; his daughter, Kathleen Brown, was the 29th California state Treasurer.

Brown appeared on the TV panel show What's My Line in 1958, as governor-electable Brown appeared as a guest critic.
