Paul Brown from "Auction Kings" stars in the Discovery Channel reality docu-series. He is the owner of one of the country's most storied auction houses, Gallery 63.
Paul Brown grew up never wanting to be in the antiques business. In fact, he was pretty sure he'd be the youngest member of the Rolling Stones ... until the whole "no musical talent" thing sunk in. Instead, Paul went to work at a car wash, where his Renaissance-Man boss encouraged him to study literature. He did just that, earning a bachelor's in English and enrolling in grad school, well on his way to writing the Great American Novel or strolling across a campus quad.
After a while, though, his interest in the family business began to grow, and in 1989 Paul started working daily at Red Baron's Antiques, his dad's auction house. Immediately drawn to the academic component of the antiques business, Paul immersed himself in the catalogs of the famous New York auction houses, learning the parlance of the trade, before bringing Red Baron's auction catalogs up to their standards. After a year or two, he took over all advertising, promotional, research and catalog duties at the company, riding a wave of successes throughout the 1990s and 2000s.
But around 2005, a bored Paul grew interested in a new challenge and decided to take over Gallery 63 in Sandy Springs, Georgia. Today, Gallery 63 is known for bizarre, high-end items—such as a snooker table custom-made for the Rolling Stones—and Paul has made a name for himself as the go-to guy for bidders looking for those one-of-a-kind pieces that can only be found inside his doors.
