Description

Footballer, cricketer, hockey player, businessman, fundraiser, husband, father, and now grandfather, Greg Brown OAM  has had an event-packed first 80 years.

A humble man, yet someone who won’t take no for an answer in his pursuit of excellence. Browny is a living, breathing example of the old Australian adage: Fortune favours the brace who get stuck in and have a go.

As a sportsman, Browny holds the distinction of being the only footballer/cricketer in Essendon’s history to win senior premierships (VCA 1963/64; V/AFL 1965). He also played a third sport, hockey. In business, Browny rose through the ranks at AMP to establish his own well-respected enterprise and set up a life for his children-Travis, Fraser and Kirilly. Family has always been number one for Browny. The enduring romance with his wife, Jill, was nothing short of a fairy tale. They were m married 10 days short of 55 years.

Limited edition hardback, picture covers. Just 50 were produced initially. This the last copy from the original run of hardbacks.
