Emily Brown was born an Aquarian in 1977 to two highly educated social workers. Her father, a CEO of large and eventually international service organizations introduced her to his life of celebrity collaboration. A large-scale and political level thinker, Brown’s father introduced her to his methodology for solving national and then international inequity through education. Brown’s mother, Dianne Ross is a LCSW-C, foster care expert, and at times, she is Brown’s co-author. Ross taught Brown about feminism, domesticity, and the power of unconditional love. Brown is the youngest of two siblings: her genetic older sister who is a voracious reader and her Jewish foster brother, a logistics expert twenty years her senior. 

     While working as a homemaker, community organizer, and volunteer, Brown collaborated with twenty kindergarteners on an adult story book, co-wrote Biography of Jetlag and began the writeitbrown blog about non-traditional career transition and living a balanced life. Now Brown blogs on jetlag. She founded TheJetLagProject.com, a YouTube channel for people who have suffered from jetlag—the condition that occurs when the body’s circadian rhythm is disturbed as a result of multi-time-zone-travel. The YouTube channel is an open-source project for travelers of all types to share their experiences, methods, and non-science based treatment of travel induced jetlag conditions. 

     Brown’s writing philosophy is that the world of literature has become unnecessarily complex.  The current state of writing has us living in the Tower of Babel. We don’t completely understand one another. Brown believes that society’s international masses need more literal interpretations of the world around us in order to move toward a sustainable future. 

     A communications and hospitality expert, Brown has studied jetlag since 2015. Her research stems from passion as her foster brother is the grandson of the world’s most fatal sufferer of jetlag, Sarah Krasnoff. Because of him, Brown wanted to answer the probing question, “can someone die of jetlag?” 

     With almost half of her life spent moving (Brown lived in eight different cities before the age of 25), she believes that the condition of jetlag  can occur independent of an airplane. In 2022, as our nation evolves from what Brown would define as an “egress from the jetlag of COVID,” her written word is motivational, thought provoking, and necessary for a future on this wonderful planet we call Earth.
