Born in Bromley, Yorkshire , and a graduate of the Leeds C o lle ge of T e c h n o l o g y in M e c h a n ic a l Engineering. Commissioned to the British Army, Monty served in the Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers. He was transferred to the Indian Army where he com m anded w o rk sh o p co m p anies se rv in g in So u th e ast A s ia , specifically India, Burma, French Indo-China and the Dutch East Indies. He was discharged in 1947 with the Rank of Major, and returned to England w here he m arried and began a career in m an u factu rin g research. In 1952 he immigrated to Canada with his family, in itially w orking at W estinghouse in Ham ilton, O ntario, as a member of the team that produced the first Canadian Homing Torpedoes. He later returned to the aluminum industry. In 1969 M onty co -fo u n d e d RAM P artitio n s, w hich m an ufactured moveable walls and later office partitions. He then joined Nightingale Industries, one of Canada's leading office furniture manufacturers. He was responsible fo r the product IN TERLO C fo r w hich he held the patents. In 1983 he accepted a new challenge: the developm ent of Teknion Furniture Systems as President, supported by Global Upholstery. Since its inception Teknion has grown to become of one the w orld's premier companies in the international office furniture systems market. Monty retired from Teknion as Chairman. Monty Brown served as an elected Trustee on the Oshawa Board of Education, and a Director on the Board of the Danny Grossman Dance Company, The Design Exchange and the Business and Institutional Manufacturers Association of Canada. Monty lived by the rule "form follow s function". His excitement and passion came from leading new products in the design phase thru m anufacturing to the end product - finessed and driven by function, predicated on rationale and logical thought. From his time in the army until his retirement, his curiosity in the com position of systems and structures drove him to enhance and create unique applications and solutions. This curiosity extended to the world around him, which he travelled extensively. From a young age he was actively engaged in fitness, he was an avid sailor, racing keelboats and became a lifelong patron of the arts. Devotion to family was evidenced in the loving care he sought for his wife Frances in her battle with Alzheimer's, and the w orld ly experience he provided each of his grandchildren to attend Neuchatel Junior College in Switzerland and travel throughout Europe for their final year of secondary school, finally joining each of them for graduation and one last sojourn.
