Todd Deutsch is a professor of photography at Saint Catherine University, St. Paul, Minnesota, yet finds time for personal projects. His artistic eye allows the viewer to explore the personality of his family through games, dinners, and the universal chaos of everyday life. Simultaneously, the frankness and humor in his style, informed by a child’s world, immediately captivates the viewer’s attention. We’d like to take this opportunity to congratulate Todd and Heidi, his wife, on the birth of their fourth son.
