Mark F. Brown was first elected to the first Tribal Council in 1995. He was actively involved in the Tribe’s efforts to achieve Federal Recognition which allowed the Tribe to provide benefits to its members and launch its business ventures. A direct descendant of the renowned Mohegan Chief Matagha and the son of the late Tribal Nonner Pauline Brown, he left his career in Law Enforcement to devote himself full-time to the Tribe. Brown was Chairman of the Tribal Council from 2000-2005. During this time, the Tribe built a casino in Pennsylvania and began the process for the Cowlitz Tribe to develop a resort casino in Washington State. Additionally, he and the Council at the time oversaw the completion of Mohegan Sun’s one-billion-dollar Project Sunburst expansion. He has been involved in almost every major decision that has affected the Tribe for the last 25+ years. Brown is the proud father of three sons and resides in Lisbon, CT with his wife, Mary.
