A tribute to a Philadelphia area Black American visual artist, Sam Brown profiles an active and prolific octogenarian whose work has been acclaimed nationally and throughout the world. Brown has served as a role model, influencing many younger painters and sculptors who credit him for serving as a trailblazer for them, and as a "living resource." In addition to being an accomplished artist, Brown has devoted his life to teaching others, always generous in his interest and support of those who dedicate their life to art.
