JEFFREY KOTERBA: Quick Draw

Creativity in Captivity

An award-winning cartoonist whose work appears in over 800 newspapers worldwide. Jeff’s original drawings have flown on space shuttle Discovery, have been exhibited in Paris, and elsewhere in France. He is a two-time TEDx speaker who speaks on creativity, problem solving, and entrepreneurship. Jeff is a creativity coach, a painter and a sculptor. He often finds inspiration for his subject matter by having been (literally) struck by lightning. He hosts the Wednesday edition of Morning Classics on Omaha's classical station, 90.7 FM. Jeff writes music, sings, and plays guitar and mandolin in his swing band, Prairie Cats, and has performed at South by Southwest and the World Trade Center in New York. An avid Francophone, he's the founder of a weekly French conversation group found in Omaha and online.
