Brown, who
scored four tries as England narrowly missed out on the title, secured
34% of the public vote from a shortlist of 16 players.
Accepting the award, he said: "I'd like to say a massive thank you to
everyone who voted for me. I'm extremely grateful and proud to win this
award, particularly as it's decided by the supporters.
"It was disappointing not to win the tournament overall but
congratulations to Ireland, and I'm sure we'll come back stronger next
season.
"Finally a big thank you to all my team-mates, backroom staff, and
coaches for all the help they've given me through the tournament. I
couldn't perform on the field without them and it's great to have that
support."
Stuart Lancaster added: "Congratulations to Mike for winning this
accolade. He's been consistently strong for us throughout the
competition and put in some outstanding performances.
"I am very proud of what Mike and the whole squad - players, coaches and
management - have achieved this Six Nations. We are really looking
forward to building on this as we head to New Zealand in the summer for
our tour."
