About Bruce Brown

Bruce "Mr. Mellow" Brown proudly served our country for four years as a Navy Corpsman during the Vietnam era. He got his BA in Economics and earned a fellowship to UCS's MBA program. For a while, poker was his sole source of income, and he even worked a few months as a card room shill-like prop or "host." Throughout his life he played poker competitively and spent 41 years playing poker profitably. He also held jobs as a human test subject, strawberry farm roadside salesman, park maintenance worker, switchboard operator, SBA loan applicant assistant, health center consultant, and chief medical administrator of three medical centers. Is this checkered enough? Happily divorced, his marriage produced two fine young men who, by job diaspora, are beyond their childhood home in Manhattan Beach, CA.
