Today is also the day former Celtics owner Marjorie Brown was born in 1911. Wife of founder Walter A. Brown at the time of his passing in 1964, the franchise ownership was split 50/50 between minority owner Louis Pieri and Marjorie after her husband Walter’s death.
Brown retained her ownership stake in the team until both she and Pieri sold their interest in the team in 1965 to the Ruppert Knickerbocker Brewing Company, a subsidiary of Marvin Kratter’s National Equities company.
