Brown, E. K. (Edward Killoran), 1905-1951 : E.K. Brown, literary critic, was born in Toronto and taught English for twenty-three years at the University of Toronto, and at the universities of Manitoba, Cornell and Chicago. He edited the University of Toronto Quarterly, 1932-1941, and introducted its annual appraisal of Canadian literature, "Letters in Canada". His published works include "On Canadian Poetry" which won the Governor-General's Award in 1943. With D.C.

Brown was the author of many articles and reviews on American and British writing, and edited the work of Matthew Arnold and Charles Dickens. He published a critical study of Arnold, "Matthew Arnold: a study in conflict", in 1948 and prepared a biography of Willa Cather, which was published posthumously in 1953.
