Jeff Snow is a story artist, illustrator, and musician who hails from a small town in Colorado. While attending the University of North Texas earning his Bachelor's degree in Saxophone and Jazz Performance, he was chosen to participate for a summer in the Disneyland All American College Band. It was during this summer Jeff realized the cartoons he doodled everyday since he was a small child could lead him to a career in animation. 

After completing college, he moved to Los Angeles and got his first real job, as an artist at Warner Bros. He was one of the very first people to draw the character of Harley Quinn while lending his talents on the fan favorite television show Batman: The Animated Series, and the subsequent feature release Batman: Mask of the Phantasm. Following his stint at Warner Bros, he went to Marvel Entertainment where he worked with comic icon Stan Lee.

Jeff's talent landed him at Disney Feature Animation where he helped bring to life the following classic films: Hunchback of Notre Dame, Hercules, and Mulan. After his work on Tarzan, he was lured over to Dreamworks Animation to become the Head of Story on The Road to El Dorado which earned a nomination for an Annie Award - the animation industry's highest honor. He was later the Head of Story on Over the Hedge and the Annie winning Kung Fu Panda: Secrets of the Masters. During his time at DreamWorks he also contributed to Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron, Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas, SharkTale, Bee Movie, Rise of the Guardians, Mr. Peabody and Sherman, How to Train Your Dragon, as well as contributing to the Madagascar and Shrek franchises.

On his subsequent return to Disney Feature Animation he provided his artistry on Zootopia, which won an Academy Award for Best Animated Feature in 2017. This was followed by MoanaRaya and the Last Dragon, Encanto, and Moana 2.

Over the course of Jeff's film career he has also contributed his skills to numerous television projects including Batman BeyondSuperman: The Animated SeriesThe Avengers, Ultimate Spider-Man, X-Men, Wolverine and the X-Men and ALVINNN!!! and The Chipmunks.

Although his primary career has been in the visual arts, he has continued playing music professionally through the years. He has performed with such notaries as Chaka Khan, Mark Isham, and Chick Corea. Jeff loves traveling with his wife and is an incessant doodler who enjoys chocolate and fine whiskey.
