Lewis Brown is a former politician in Liberia. He was interim foreign minister of Liberia in 2003 under President Charles Taylor.[1] Brown was preceded by Monie Captan and replaced by Thomas Nimely. President Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf nominated Lewis Brown, the architect of the National Democratic Coalition (NDC) as her new Minister of Information, Culture Affairs and Tourism on January 24, 2012. Brown, who served as interim foreign minister of Liberia in 2003 under President Charles Taylor replaces Cletus Sieh who was dismissed in the wake of last year’s violent riots by rampaging vacation students protesting the failure of the Monrovia City Corporation to pay their week’s wages. Brown, a once-vocal critic of the Sirleaf administration, threw his weight behind the incumbent just weeks before the disintegration of the NDC headed by Dew Mayson. His sudden support of the president raised eyebrows and accusations from his detractors that he was eyeing a position in Sirleaf’s Cabinet
