Charley Krebs

I have been the cartoonist for Chicago Jazz Magazine for almost a decade now. I am also the editorial cartoonist for the La Grange, Illinois edition of AOL Patch (http://lagrange.patch.com/). My political cartooning has been recognized with 9 Illinois Press Association awards and 6 national awards.

My artwork is now featured regularly in venues throughout Chicago and the suburbs (videos from these shows are viewable below). I also currently author a column for the Chicago Jazz Magazine newsletter; and recently appeared on the radio as co-host of the late, great broadcast "This Is Chicago Jazz with Mike Jeffers" (podcasts are still accessible elsewhere on this website).

In addition to my CJM work (samples are viewable here in the photos section), I also have created a variety of promotional flyers, brochures and advertisements during my years as an art director in the international alumni-association and museum-membership travel marketplace.

Today, I still work on those sorts of things along with album covers and other materials related to the music scene. Notable among these are the posters for Chicago Sessions Weekend at Jazz Showcase (also viewable in my photos section) If you are looking for a unique approach to your graphics and promotional needs, please contact me for a "cool-aboration" soon.
