Roland Brown is an English barrister who served as the first Attorney General of Tanzania. [1]
Brown was a part time lecturer at Trinity College at the University of Cambridge. He was appointed as a constitutional adviser to Julius Nyerere, the leader of the Tanganyika Territory's independence movement. [2]
In 1961, he was appointed as the first Attorney General of independent Tanganyika, succeeding J. S. R. Cole. However, he was not a member of the cabinet.

Following the 1967 Arusha Declaration, Brown was given three days to prepare a bill for the nationalization of private owned banks in the country. [5]
