DuShon Monique Brown (November 30, 1968 – March 23, 2018) was an American actress.
She played Nurse Katie Welch on the Fox series Prison Break and Connie in Chicago Fire.
Cinematography
She entered the Chicago Fire cast in the series' first season in 2016 in an interview with Hidden Remote.[1]
She was a secretary and had a single speech. But I auditioned because it was a new series in Chicago Fire and had the possibility that she could become.
She sees herself, especially with the younger members of the team, as a kind of mother, aunt, teacher. Eamonn and I, we play when I'm on the set that Connie is the boss's working wife and all the rest are her kids, they wrote Connie as that motherly figure that everyone seems to run away from.
I'm just a goofy, geeky chicagoan who plays the violin, likes karaoke, embraces the trees, loves to be appreciated for his work and dreams of playing a superhero in the movies.
Education
Brown was a graduate of Whitney M. Young Magnet High School and Governors State University, with a master's degree in school counseling.
Personal life and death
Brown had one child: a daughter, Zoe.[2] She checked herself into the hospital earlier in the week after experiencing chest pains but was released shortly after undergoing tests.[3] Brown died at St. James Olympia Fields Hospital at the age of 49 on March 23, 2018.[4]
