Michael Brown
Michael Brown, born 1932 – referred to as “D Michael Brown” in Out of the Shadows – is a gay campaigner, from the early days of GLF and before. In March 2011 he received the Derek Oyston Achievement Award from CHE. He can be seen talking about the award in a video by Leon Ancliffe.
He was listed by Out in the City Issue 55 (07/11) as number 86 in the Pride Power List 2011 of 100 most influential people. The entry described him as "now mayor of Ealing", which is clearly a mistake, possibly a confusion with John Gallagher.
