  • "Born the son of a physician in Kansas City, Dr. Hugh A. Browne was diagnosed with tuberculosis as a teenager but recovered in two years. Browne attended four years of undergraduate studies at Kansas University at Lawrence, two years of medical training at University of Kansas and completed his medical training at Howard University College of Medicine in Washington, D.C., because UK did not offer the last two years of training to African Americans. Due to fellow physicians leaving Kansas City, Browne was able take over a practice and became the examining physician for Kansas City's open-air school program and Negro division of that city's tuberculosis division. After persuasion by Dr. G.W.S. Ish of Little Rock, Pulaski County, Arkansas, Browne decided to close his private practice and move to Arkansas to run a new Sanatorium. In 1931, Browne became the first superintendent of the Thomas C. McRae Sanatorium at Alexander, Saline County, Arkansas, which was especially built for the African Americans with tuberculosis in Arkansas. After 31 years at the McRae, Browne retired October 1, 1962 and soon after passed away at age 62 in his home in Kansas City on Nov. 14, 1962."
