Jeffrey Conrad

Jeff Okun

Jeffrey Conrad, President & Chief Creative Officer of American Greetings Properties, has enjoyed a remarkable career at American Greetings since joining its creative team in 1990. Initially hired as a board artist, Conrad quickly became a commanding force in the company's initiative to create and support a full-service inbound licensing department for the development of innovative licensed party goods and greeting cards. In 2002-2003, Conrad was instrumental in the enormously successful relaunches of Care Bears and Strawberry Shortcake, thereby newly establishing American Greetings' outbound licensing branch, AGProperties.

Today Conrad also oversees American Greetings' Alternative Humor Studios and has direct responsibility for creating, developing and acquiring exclusive intellectual properties for use in entertainment and outbound licensing.

Conrad is the artist and creator of Maryoku Yummy, an animated pre-school children's show currently in production.
