Ub Iwerks (Ubbe Ert Iwerks) (March 24, 1901–July 7, 1971), was an American animator and cartoonist, who was famous for his work for Walt Disney. He was born in Kansas City, Missouri. His name is explained by his East Frisian roots — his father, Eert Ubbe Iwwerks, emigrated to the USA in 1869 from the village Uttum in East Frisia (northwest Germany).

Iwerks was responsible for the distinctive style of the earliest Disney cartoons. The first few Mickey Mouse cartoons were animated almost entirely by Iwerks. He was considered by many to be Walt Disney's oldest friend, and spent most of his career with Disney. Their friendship was severed when Iwerks accepted a contract with a competitor to leave Disney and start an animation studio under his own name.

Iwerks's most famous work outside animating Mickey Mouse was Flip the Frog for his own studio.

Iwerks was known for his fast work at drawing and animation and his wacky sense of humor. Animator Chuck Jones, who worked for Iwerks' studio in his youth, said "Iwerks is Screwy spelled backwards."
