Leo Brown (aka Gregg Lee)

Leo Brown (aka Gregg Lee), 68, suddenly on July 16 while on vacation in Halifax. Under his given name, Brown began his radio career at the age of 19 at CJCB Sydney, NS. He had transitioned to the on-air sign on of Gregg Lee by the time he moved on to stints at CHNS and CJCH in Halifax. In 1982, he began a 20-year career at 1050 CHUM and CHUM-FM in Toronto, where he honed his skills as a commercial and documentary voiceover performer, including serving as the narrator of “The CHUM History of Rock” film, and a regular booth announcer for CityTV. Upon leaving CHUM in 2002, he was retained as a production voice for The Team sports network, followed by many years as a national commercial voiceover performer for Rogers, and radio and TV stations in Italy and South Africa. An ACTRA member for four decades, he most recently had been working as an English voiceover talent for advertising agencies and production houses in Quebec, and as a performer on features for AMI (Accessible Media Inc.). He donated his talents to many charitable causes, including Big Brothers and Big Sisters, and The Variety Club of Ontario.
