Louise Brown (1877-1955) was an Australian writer. She was born Annie Louise Gordon, daughter of John Hannah Gordon (1850-1923), a Scottish-Australian politician and judge. Her first husband, James Robert Anderson, who was Attorney General of South Australia, died in 1913. In 1915 she married Dr. Edgar Jabez Brown (1876-1954).
