Brown Sterling Brown was born in Washington, D.C., in 1901. He was educated at Dunbar High School and received a bachelor's degree from Williams College. He studied the work of Ezra Pound and T. S. Eliot , but was more interested in the works of Amy Lowell , Edgar Lee Masters, Robert Frost and Carl Sandburg . In 1923, he earned a master's degree from Harvard University and was employed as a teacher at the Virginia Seminary and College in Lynchburg until 1926. Three years later, Brown began teaching at Howard University and in 1932 his first book, Southern Road , was published. His poetry was influenced by jazz, the blues, work songs and spirituals and, like Langston Hughes Jean Toomer Countee Cullen , and other black poets of the period, his writing expresses his concerns about race in America. Southern Road was well received by critics and Brown became part of the artistic tradition of the Harlem Renaissance, but with the arrival of the Depression, Brown could not find a publisher for his second book of verse. He turned to writing essays and focused on his career as a teacher at Howard, where he taught until his retirement in 1969. He finally published his second book of poetry, The Last Ride of Wild Bill , in 1975. Brown is known for his frank, unsentimental portraits of black people and their experiences, and the incorporation of African-American folklore and contemporary idiom into his verse. He died in 1989 in Takoma Park, Maryland.

The photo is from The Ann Arbor Poetry Forum photo by Roy Lewis Sterling Allen Brown Sterling Brown is one of the unsung heroes of African-American poetry. Born in 1901, died in 1989, Brown spent most of his life as an English professor at Howard University, where he taught a wide range of courses from Shakespeare to World Literature. While generations of students—Amiri Baraka and Gwendolyn Brooks being two of the most famous—have paid tribute to his influential teaching, his poetry was largely neglected during his lifetime. Brown grew up squarely in the black middle class of Washington, DC, but his interest in the lives of common folk took him from the lecture hall to the barrel house and the barbershop. While influenced by such American poetic masters as Robert Frost and Edgar Lee Masters, Brown’s poems managed to synthesize traditional poetic forms with the dialect of working-class African-Americans. The quote from Mark Patrick at At The Ann Arbor Poetry Forum 1996-1997 The verses resonate with the music of the life he saw around himthe blues sung to lost loves, chants of saints praying to be in the number, tragic-comic cries in the face of hatred and injustice, and jubilant songs of endurance and perseverance. Sterling Brown's poetic genius lies in his subtle adaptation of blues, spirituals, work songs, and ballads into silver threads that dazzle his spoken verse. The quote is from Smithsonian Folkways "In the beginning I never found poems in the American literary pantheon about the things I knew best. I decided that I would at least do my part and try to put some of those poems in there. At the time I was reading black American literature, mostly in anthologies. I didn't know about Sterling Brown. If I had, I would have taken a different approach...

Brown's Sterling Nissan Sterling VA SITE GUIDE Automotive Communications Computers ... Weddings SEARCH THE SITE Enter a word or phrase Whole words only Sheila of Sterling VA writes (5/15/01): I first visited Brown's Sterling Nissan in Sterling, Va. on May 1, 2001 to look at a 2001 Pathfinder LE 4WD. During this visit, a Salesperson by the first name of Benjamin assisted me. Upon learning that I was interested in a particular colored vehicle (Gold) that was not in stock, I was informed that such a vehicle could be located for me. The Salesperson and Sales Manager, John Hanes, also strongly insisted that I leave a check for $100, which was supposed to let them know that I was serious about purchasing the vehicle. Therefore, I wrote a check for $100 on May 1, 2001 to Brown’s Sterling Nissan. The next day I received a phone call from the Salesperson, who indicated that a car the exact color that I was interested in was located and ready for me to pick up. On May 2, 2001 I arrived at Brown's Sterling Nissan and immediately requested to test drive the car that they had located (which had 160 miles on it) before I purchased the car. This request was met with some resistance at first, but eventually was granted. Upon test-driving the vehicle, I noticed a revving in the engine that I was uncomfortable with and concerned about. I expressed my concerns about the engine noise and indicated that I wanted a male cousin, who is a member of the US Marine to test drive the car with me and advise me on the purchase. I was told that I could bring my cousin back on Saturday, May 5, 2001 to test drive the car. Later, after conferring with several friends that own either Nissan Pathfinders or other Nissan vehicles, I was advised that the vehicles did not normally make such noise.
