Who is Lesly Brown?
If it weren’t for her husband, Lesly Brown would be just a common photographer among many, but now she is the wife of Pat Sajak and a well-known celebrity. They married in 1989, the very last day of the year, and have been a couple and a family ever since. However, at 54, she has also accomplished some things on her own, working with major brand Playboy and being an aspiring actress. Discover his professional life in the following.
Short biography
Little information about Lesly is known, despite her growing popularity since 1989. For almost 30 years, she managed to remain a mystery to the media. She was born Lesly Brown in Maryland, USA on February 18, 1965. Her parents, with this surname, are Michael and Maria. They were a big family, as she grew up with two sisters, Kelly and Wendy.
Academically, she prepared for the University of Maryland to fulfill her first dream of becoming an actress. She studied television production there, but never pursued that type of career.
First steps into the big world
Her early accomplishments were made due to her natural beauty and ambition long before she met her husband. From an early age, she was a model, magnificently crowned with the title of Miss Georgetown. Moreover, in 1988, Playboy contacted her and offered her a photo session, which resulted in a very successful photo session entitled “Women of Washington”. Soon after, she gave up modeling but recently starred in commercials for Sandals Emerald Bay. The first appearance of this campaign dates back to February 2012 and other clips with Lesly were released the same month the following year.
Acting and photography
After giving up modeling, she pursues her childhood dream of becoming a photographer – her creations can be admired on her website www.lesliebrown.com, well organized into categories and types of photos. Lesly’s interesting style and ability to surprise even the most experienced viewer can be admired in the Architecture, Interiors, Cuisine or Couples albums. One of the quotes on which his activity is based is “The point of taking pictures is not having to explain things with words”, by Elliott Erwitt. She may have made a lot of money and had a great time through photography, as her portfolio is vast and complex.
At the same time, one of Lesly’s other passions is acting. Although she was not able to build a solid and remarkable career in this field, she enjoyed working on stage and screen in promising projects, experimenting with a different type of teamwork and visual production. “Wheel of Fortune” is the game show she guested on three times, in 1997, 2008, and 2010. She made various appearances on that show’s marketing campaigns, including promoting a jewelry line on the wheel theme in 2008.
Marital status
In 1988, then 23, Lesly met her future husband, prolific and popular actor Pat Sajak, who was 42 at the time. They first met through a mutual friend, who endeavored to bring them both together at the same sports bar in California. At first, they were reluctant to develop a romantic relationship and only spoke on the phone. This kind of long-distance communication helped them build a strong relationship with each other, which turned into something more. Despite the age gap, they started dating and soon after, in December 1989, they walked down the aisle. Their wedding was a private ceremony – the interesting fact is that Lesly’s parents didn’t even know about Pat’s popularity.
Children and family
They have two adult children together – their son, Patrick Michael James Sajak was born in September 1990 and is currently a stand-up comedian. His sister, Maggie Sajak is five years younger than him and is a singer. Her biggest childhood passion was country music and she pursued a career in that field. Playing the guitar at the age of 12 certainly helped him a lot. Then she learned to play the mandolin, ukulele and piano. Now she has released three singles, the first being titled “First Kiss”.
Maggie Sajak featured in the February/March 2014 issue of Justine magazine.
