Jerry Dolyn Brown (November 9, 1942 – March 4, 2016) was an American folk artist and traditional stoneware pottery maker who lived and worked in Hamilton, Alabama.

[3] His numerous showings included the 1984 Smithsonian Festival of American Folklife with his uncle, potter Gerald Stewart.

He worked in logging for nearly twenty years but then aided by his wife Sandra, his uncle Gerald Stewart and other family members was able to return to art in the early 1980s, building his studio from an old barn.

[7] As inheritor of both Brown and Stewart pottery traditions[2] Brown produced utilitarian stoneware in the nineteenth and early twentieth century styles as well as to create innovations for more modern usages, such as his apple baking dishes, chicken cookers and microwave bacon cookers.

(According to his mother he had learned the basics of whimsical pottery making from his father, as the Stewarts did not have a face jug tradition.
