Photos here are only a representation of some of my work at www.cbrownimages.com. Award -winning photographer CHRISTOPHER Brown's images reflect a diverse career which has spanned the Theatre, Business and Art worlds. He began his career as an actor, receiving a Master of Fine Arts degree from Yale University School of Drama. He was school and classmates of Meryl Streep and Sigourney Weaver. Among his many theatre, film and TV credits, he appeared on Broadway in the play and motion picture version of �The Ritz.� Christopher was a series regular on the Daytime Drama ANOTHER WORLD and in prime time on the ABC TV Comedy OPERATION PETTICOAT, which launched Jamie Lee Curtis. Mr. Brown has appeared on Broadway, and in Regional Theatres including South Coast Repertory, Yale Repertory Theatre and The Old Globe Theatre in San Diego.

He started his photographic studio in Hollywood, California, photographing actors, models and celebrities. While maintaining his studio, Christopher joined Balcar Lighting Systems, a French Photographic Lighting Company, in the mid 1980�s.
