Voices on the River: 22 Days on the Delta Queen

Dennis Brown's book, Actors Talk: Profiles and Stories from the Acting Trade, published in 2000, was praised by Playbill magazine as "one of the finest interview collections ever published." A companion volume, Shoptalk: Conversations about Theater and Film with Twelve Writers, One Producer -- and Tennessee Williams' Mother, was published in 1992.
Brown wrote the screenplay for The Perfect Tribute, which starred Jason Robards as Abraham Lincoln. The award-winning television movie aired on ABC in 1991 and again in 1992. He directed William Atherton, Conchata Ferrell, Mary Beth Hurt, and Lane Smith in his stage adaptation of William Inge's novel, My Son is a Splendid Driver, at the William Inge Festival in Independence, Ks.
He assisted Gregory Peck in developing his one-man show, A Conversation with Gregory Peck. From 1995-1998 they toured together to 52 engagements throughout the United States and Canada.
Brown spent ten years (seven in New York, three in Los Angeles) as a publicist for CBS Entertainment, where he represented Angela Lansbury on Murder, She Wrote.
Brown currently resides in Saint Louis, Missouri, where he spent 15 years teaching film classes at Webster University and another 12 years as a theater reviewer for The Riverfront Times newspaper.
