Notably in her childhood she and her sister spent a year as students in a French convent while their father convalesced in England with their mother. In 1938 Charlotte drove west to Stanford University in her father’s new Packard convertible car with a friend, unchaperoned. She graduated from Stanford in 1942 and then Cornell University Medical School in 1945 where she was one of only two women in her class. While at Cornell, Charlotte met and married David Brown MD, her loving husband of 74 years. Shortly after finishing residencies they moved to New Canaan where they lived for the next 64 years until their move to Providence.
