Lynne is a songwriter/ worship leader, recording artist, guitarist, speaker, conference teacher and cookbook author. Her grand-father, Hilleary Arthur Brown headed the Philadelphia office of ASCAP ( American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers.)Her great grand-parents were traveling mintrels. Growing up in St. Petersburg, Florida and coming from a prestigious musical family, Lynne thought music was her calling. Having performed on college campuses and supper clubs across the country, as a proficient guitarist /singer /songwriter /entertainer, Lynne was encouraged by music business friends in NAshville Tennessee to move to Nashville. When it began to appear as though Lynne would accomplish her blife-long dream of becoming a major recording artist in secular music, she soon realized that this did not bring the deep inner satisfaction she thought it would. Accomplishing her goal would not quench the deep, dry, thirsty longing in her soul. But, she discovered the One Who could fill the vacuum in her heart! Since committing her life to Jesus Christ, Lynne realized that God has called her to use her gifts and talents not to bring herself glory but to glorify Him. In 1988, Lynne began In His Name Music ministries and has encouraged and inspired people with her music, her wit and warm personality in concerts and events across the country.

Lynne teaches Christian Songwriting at conferences and events across the country including: The Songwriters Guild - Nashville office; NSAI ( Nashville Songwriters Association International); The Kentucky Christian Writers Conference.
