George Brown was a pseudonym used by Billy Hill (born July 14, 1899, Boston, Massachusetts, USA – died December 24, 1940, Boston, Massachusetts, USA) an American songwriter, violinist, and pianist. Originally credited under the pseudonym of George Brown, purportedly because he didn't want his name reversed to 'Hill Billy'. Perhaps his best known work is "The Glory Of Love" recorded by Benny Goodman in 1936. Inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 1970.
