Jeff Charlebois

Comedian Jeff Charlebois was born and raised on the east coast, the perfect example of an all around guy-- high school star quarterback, tennis, basketball and golf player, and All American diver on his swim team. It wasn't until the beginning part of his junior year was he involved in an automobile accident causing a broken neck and spinal cord injury. Hospitalization and rehabilitation consumed every day of the next six months.

Jeff returned to school and was graduated before taking on college as a wheelchair user. After his first two years of study he was accepted and transferred to Wright State University where enrolled in a new bio/engineering program specializing in spinal cord research. The program was highly acclaimed and was featured on a segment of 60 Minutes. While participating in this promising study for SCI patients, he continued his studies that lead to a B.A. degree in psychology and business, two subjects that certainly fueled the mind of this aspiring comedy writer with plenty of material.

The comedy bug never left Jeff. Jeff's direction in life encouraged him to move to Los Angeles to pursue his comedy and acting dreams. He has become a script writer and contributing writer to many magazines including ABILITY Magazine. He is currently producing a sitcom that takes place in a rehabilitation hospital. Jeff continues to tour the country as a comedian and motivational speaker. He has since made over 100 comedy and speaking engagements on college campuses, at advocacy organization events, and corporate functions.
