Someone who is cultured and well educated. An intellectual.
The slang term "highbrow" comes from the psuedo-science of phrenology, where the size and shape of the head supposedly defined the talents and capabilities of the individual. Those with a high brow supposedly had a larger frontal cortex of the brain, and were smarter than "lowbrows."
