Women’s History Month Profiles: Mika Brown

For Women’s History Month, we’re taking a look at a group of leaders who are currently active making women’s history across the labor movement. Check back daily for a new profile and meet some of the people working to improve not only their community, but also to improve conditions for working people across the country. Today’s profile is Mika Brown of the Theatrical Stage Employees (IATSE).

A camera operator for 20 years, Mika Brown has worked in sports broadcasting for 16 of those and has been a proud member of IATSE Local 317 for eight. Brown said being an IATSE member means having the support of a skilled, dedicated community that ensures fair wages, benefits and protections, allowing her to focus on her craft. “I’m proud to advocate for more representation and opportunities for women in sports broadcasting.”
