August 17, 2023

On this episode of Trauma Hiders Club, Actor and entertainer, Percy Brown.

Hailing from New York City, he is known for his unstoppable talent and magnetic charisma. He began honing his intellect and strategy in chess at the age of 7 and found his passion for acting at 14. Percy attended the Urban Assembly School for the Performing Arts, where he was nurtured by the renowned Epic Theatre Company. He went on to major in Theatre at St. Bonaventure University, earning a BA in Fine Arts/Theatre in 2018. Percy's dedication and talent have propelled him to launch The Prince of Fresh Air Podcast in 2020, which has rapidly gained a global audience.


Listen in and you’ll learn how reading novels allowed him to tap into a different universe and spark creativity. Percy shares insights into his passion for acting and the complexities of this art form, striving for realism and emotional attachment to characters.

Percy shares his personal experiences in foster care, explaining the emotional and physical trauma he endured.

You’ll hear about the strained relationship with his real family, the challenges of finding his self-identity, and how he has arrived to a place of acceptance.


“I think doing Shakespeare challenged me as an actor because it wasn't as easy as just playing a boy next door. It wasn't it was a lot more simple, a lot more context, and a lot of dialogue.”

— Percy Brown
