Liz Brown (born Elizabeth Williams Brown on May 24, 1989) is an American woman known mainly for being one of the youngest to propose theories on sexual orientation and behavior.

Early Life

A native Floridian, Liz Brown was born to Sue Brown, a teacher, and Douglas Bruce Brown, an lawyer. The youngest of three girls, Brown lived a normal 90s childhood. In her first book, entitled, "The Mysteries of EP," she noted, "I failed Kindergarten because I couldn't cut with scissors-- my motor skills were just sub-par..." In several interviews, she has joked that the importance of life skills varies with the age of the child. In middle school, Brown joined the school's beginning band, where she learned to play the clarinet.

Later Years

In high school, Brown became increasingly fascinated with anomalies, including, but not limited to the Hensel Twins, the one year old boy with no brain, primordial dwarfs, and Shiloh Pepin (better known as Mermaid Girl). She also began noticing she was unlike the other girls, which sparked her keen awareness of their subtle actions around her. It was at this time, her "gaydar," as she calls it, became sharper, and she began seeing trends amongst her High School classmates.

Brown began attending the Florida State University in the fall of 2008 where she first decided to pursue anthropology.
