Pamela Brown OF THE BULLETIN WITH PAMELA BROWN ON CNN Jesse L. Martin in “The Irrational”
Q: With all the changes to the CNN lineup lately, it’s good to see Pamela Brown get a new show of her own. I thought I read that she is related to someone famous. Is that true? A: It is, and on two counts, given who her parents were. Her mother, Phyllis George – a former Miss America – is widely remembered as a trailblazer among national television sportscasters, and she gave birth to Pamela in 1983 while serving as one of the regulars on the CBS pregame show “The NFL Today.” Brown’s father, John Y. Brown Jr., was the governor of Kentucky from 1979 to 1983 … and he also was a pro-basketball-team owner and an owner of Kentucky Fried Chicken who bought the latter company from Colonel Harland Sanders. Brown now has a weekday-afternoon program on CNN, “The Bulletin With Pamela Brown,” the latest step in her career with the cable news network where she began working in 2013. Before that, she had been an anchor-reporter at WJLA-TV in Washington, D.C.

Brown recently earned a Master of Studies in Law degree from George Washington University, and she and her husband have a son and a daughter.
