Ami Brown is a reality television personality best known for her role on the Discovery Channel’s series Alaskan Bush People. The show documents the unconventional lifestyle of the Brown family as they live off the grid in the Alaskan wilderness. Born on August 28, 1963, Ami gained widespread attention for her role as the matriarch of the Brown family.
Ami married Billy Brown when she was 15 years old and he was 26. The couple went on to have seven children together. Their sons are Joshua (also known as "Bam Bam"), Solomon ("Bear"), Gabriel, Noah, and Rain. Their only daughter is named Snowbird. The Brown family forms the central focus of Alaskan Bush People, providing audiences a glimpse into their off-the-grid lifestyle.
Filmed primarily near Hoonah, Alaska, and on Chichagof Island, Alaskan Bush People premiered in 2014 and has enjoyed several successful seasons. As of its ninth season, the show continues to follow the daily challenges and triumphs of the Brown family as they navigate life in the wilderness. Despite its popularity, the show has also generated controversy over authenticity and legal concerns.
In October 2016, members of the Brown family faced legal issues when they were charged with multiple counts related to Permanent Fund Dividend fraud and felony theft. The charges stemmed from questions about the family’s residency in Alaska, as eligibility for the dividend requires full-time residency in the state. Some of these charges were later resolved through plea agreements and restitution.
