Jeffrey Brown

Jeffrey Brown (born 1975) is a comic book writer and artist born in Grand Rapids, Michigan. He specialises in personal and intimate works detailing moments in relationships. He writes his comics in sketchbooks, and his drawing is often out of proportion or incorrect in a way that mirrors that strain and awkwardness of the situations he depicts. He won an Ignatz award in 2003 in the category of Outstanding Mini-Comic, for "I Am Going To Be Small". He directed the music video for Death Cab for Cutie's "Your Heart is an Empty Room".

His work has been featured on NPR's This American Life and in MOME, "Drawn and Quarterly Showcase" and "McSweeney's" #13, which was edited by Chris Ware. James Kochalka has called "Clumsy" his "favorite graphic novel ever". "Clumsy" was originally self-published and was later published by Top Shelf Productions and as of 2007 an estimated 20,000 copies have been printed, according to an interview by Brown in "The Comics Journal".

Brown's "To Phoenix I'm Sorry I Missed You" was published in the Spring 2008 issue of "The Florida Review".
