Here’s Just a Little Bit About Jeff

Hi, I’m Jeff Goodman.
(He/Him)

I live in North Central Phoenix, Arizona, with my wife, Erin, and our two dogs, Murray & Sherman. Born and raised in a suburb of Kansas City, I freely admit to being a BBQ snob. When we're not singing showtunes while cooking, working on our house, or enjoying museums or theater, we're counting down the days to our next stay on the Oregon Coast.

These are a few of my favorite things:

Gallery: Spoke Art
BBQ Sauce: Gates/Jones (tie)
Illustrator: Max Dalton
BBQ Pork Ribs: Joe’s
Director: Wes Anderson
Ceramics: Pawena Studio

Composer: Stephen Sondheim

I love working with other creative people.

At the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation, I was fortunate to work with some incredible graphic designers as a part of a graphic design fellowship program I led with Michael Bierut.

The designers I worked with: Neeta Patel, Ruth Lin, Meagan Vanderhill, Rachel Minier, and (sadly, not in this video) Brienna Flewelling. They are all amazing. If you are looking for a designer, this is a great list!

Oh yeah,

There was this one time that sitting President Bill Clinton thanked me in a speech…
