Arnold Brown first came to prominence in the early 1980s as a highly distinctive comedian alongside Alexei Sayle and Rik Mayall et al at The Comedy Store and The Comic Strip. In 1987, he won the prestigious PERRIER AWARD at the Edinburgh Festival. Possibly the only Glaswegian Jewish ex-chartered accountant stand up comedian in the world, Arnold has supported Frank Sinatra at Glasgow's Ibrox Park Stadium and top US comedian Steven Wright at London's Dominion Theatre. Arnold's unique comedy can be heard on his latest LAUGHING STOCK CD - A Guide To The Perplexed - and seen on the LAUGHTER HOUSE video - LIVE AT HACKNEY EMPIRE.

In 1979, whilst still a full-time chartered accountant, Arnold Brown performs at the opening night of the Comedy Store in London. His act is terminated prematurely when a heckler kills his first punchline before it can be delivered. The following year he is co-founds the Comic Strip alongside other key figures in the new 'alternative comedy', such as Peter Richardson and Alexei Sayle. In 1983, Brown abandons accountancy completely in favour of stand-up comedy. On the British comedy circuit he soon develops a loyal following amongst audiences the length and breadth of the country.

Steinbach noted that he and Brown wanted the salary line increased to$5,000... the Budget Committee compromised at $4,500. Stewart asked what has been spent so far on Fire Department and Ambulance training this year. Gray said they’ve spent $3,660 to date. Steinbach moved to increase the training line back to $5,000 from $4,000. Srnec seconded. The Ayes are: Chair Arnold, Steinbach, Stewart, Brown, Gray and Srnec.

Several years later, Brown teamed up with Brad Park and put in two unprecedented seasons of offensive output. It was the heart of the Bobby Orr era when blueliners began to think and act more offensively. Brown got into the act with 36 points in 1969-70. But during the playoffs of that year, he blew out his knees, which precipitated the demise of his career. Numerous operations on both legs were required with a piece of his mobility disappearing with each intervention.
