The museum and its staff who worked on this site (Junko, Etsuko, and Mark) would like to thank all the people and organizations that helped make the development of this website possible. Without their help and cooperation it would not have been possible to include as much additional information, or relevant images, about Brown's early life as we have been able to do.

We have included copyright or source credits for the images used on this site wherever possible. This section lists these, along with links to their websites or other information.
