Eli Neugeboren is the Pixelmonger (Digital Imaging Manager) at Spin magazine, where he has been for over three years. Before that he retouched advertising and editorial work at a few small retouching studios. When he is not removing zits and double chins from rock stars' faces, he draws and plays ultimate frisbee. In 2003 he was lucky enough to participate in the Venice Biennale as part of Marko Peljhan's "Makrolab" project.

He grew up in the sleepy west of the woody east, in a valley full of pioneers. He earned his bfa in painting from Ohio University in 1997 and moved to New York City about a week after graduation, where he parlayed a job waiting tables into a job designing hairbows for Disney and Warner Bros. Studio Stores. In 2002 he migrated west to Santa Barbara, California to work towards an MFA at the University of California, Santa Barbara, then ran back to the East Coast. He lives in Brooklyn with his wife, Jennifer. You can see his latest drawings on his blog: http://enoogs.blogspot.com/
