When Samantha Brown heads to the office, she can be anywhere from a beach on the New Jersey shore to the grand palaces of South Korea.
That’s because Brown’s “workplace” is wherever she happens to be producing the latest episode of her PBS series, “Samantha Brown’s Places to Love.” In effect, she vacations for a living. And that’s been her career ever since she started hosting travel shows two decades ago — initially, for the Travel Channel, where she helmed such series as “Passport to Europe” and “Girl Meets Hawaii.”
