- Brown was a master of creating a myriad of sound effects from mundane items. For example, he could crumple a newspaper to sound like any kind of fire.
- When he finally began to get screen credit for his decades of work in 1956, studio bosses insisted that Treg Brown be erroneously credited as "Film Editor" because they felt that Brown's true designation, "Sound Effects", was undignified.
- Mel Blanc, after 18 months of trying to get his foot in the door in Hollywood, was auditioned by Treg Brown in 1937. It was Treg who urged his boss, Leon Schlesinger, to sign the former KEX-Radio announcer.
- Almost all of the sound effects he created are still used.
