Jeffrey Brown
LITERARY CLIENT
Jeffrey Brown was born in 1975 in Grand Rapids, Michigan and grew up reading comic books with dreams of someday drawing them. While earning his MFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, Brown abandoned painting and began drawing comics with his first autobiographical book 'Clumsy' in 2001. Since then he's drawn a dozen books for publishers including TopShelf, Fantagraphics, Drawn & Quarterly, McSweeney's and Chronicle Books. Simon & Schuster published his latest graphic memoir 'Little Things' and will also publish his next memoir 'Funny Misshapen Body.' In addition to directing an animated video for the band Death Cab For Cutie, Brown has had his work featured on NPR's 'This American Life' and is having some of it developed for toys and animated features. His art has been shown at galleries in New York, San Francisco, San Diego, Los Angeles and Paris.
He currently lives in Chicago with his partner Jennifer and their son Oscar.
