Jason Brown received his Ph.D. from the University of Toronto in 1987, and since 1994 he has been a professor in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at Dalhousie University in Halifax, Canada. He has written more than 70 articles in applied and theoretical graph theory, with particular interest on the underlying combinatorics of network reliability. His research reaches into the realm of music, and his work in 2004 that used Fourier transforms to uncover how the Beatles played the opening chord of {\em A Hard Day's Night} garnered international media attention.
