She began her career covering Canadian news for CBC News. She decided to become a foreign correspondent in 1971. She spent most of the following four decades as a foreign reporter and war correspondent for all three of the major networks in the United States. The New York Times expressly cited Brown’s work as a model for female war correspondents today in 2015. During the collapse of Saigon in 1975, Brown was among the last to flee.
