Brown was born in Liverpool and attended St Francis De Sales School, Walton. She was a singer in a vocal group (the Carrolls) with her brothers, and was then for a time a solo singer, before using her talent for mimicry to switch to comedy impressions.

Her comedy special, The Faith Brown Awards,[1] produced by London Weekend Television for the ITV network, received an audience of 9.8 million viewers when it was broadcast in September 1978.[2] This was followed by the six part series, The Faith Brown Chat Show, in January 1980. Brown won a TV Times award for 'Funniest Woman on TV' in the same year.[3]

She was the subject of This Is Your Life in 1982 when she was surprised by Eamonn Andrews while appearing as a guest on the ITV entertainment show Game For A Laugh.

She has appeared as a panelist on Celebrity Squares, Give Us A Clue, Blankety Blank, Punchlines, New Faces and Win, Lose or Draw plus several other TV entertainment shows, and the reality show I'm a Celebrity…Get Me out of Here! (2006).

She appeared in the 1985 Doctor Who story Attack of the Cybermen playing an alien, Flast, former leader of the Cryons.
