"Todd Hido is a contemporary American photographer whose work has often focused on the dark underside of suburbia. Born on August 25, 1968 in Kent, OH, he studied at the California College of Arts and Crafts in Oakland. Hido’s work, inspired in particular by Alfred Hitchcock and Rineke Dijkstra, is characterized by the singling out of “bright spots” amid desolated spaces. His early series Houses at Night (1997) showcased various farm and suburban homes lit with a single light source, lending a sense of urgency and despair to the otherwise ordinary scenes. He has also completed multiple photographic series of prostitutes set in spare hotel rooms, including Between the Two (2008) and Fragmented Narratives (2011). Hido is notable for publishing almost all of his work as stand-alone books, which he considers to be part of his art. The artist has had been the subject of numerous solo shows, including at the Julie Saul Gallery in New York in 2004, Yours Gallery in Warsaw in 2008, and the Galerie Particulière in Paris in 2012. He lives and works in San Francisco, CA." from artnet.com
