Mary Daniel Hobson became captivated by photography at the age of fourteen and has been pursuing it ever since. Trained as an art historian, Hobson was inspired by her graduate studies of Surrealism to begin working in a mixed media manner with photography. Whether bottling photographs, building layered collages, or constructing still lives, Hobson’s work consistently explores inner geography and layered experience.

Born and raised in San Francisco, Hobson has had numerous exhibitions across the country at venues including the Robert Koch Gallery (San Francisco, CA), Modern Book Gallery (Palo Alto, CA), Galerie BMG (Woodstock, NY), Etherton Gallery (Tucson, AZ), and the Camera Club of New York (New York, NY). Her work is in collections such as the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, the Albuquerque Museum, the Bolinas Museum and numerous private collections. Hobson is also the director of the Arts and Healing Network (www.artheals.org). You could learn more about her work online at www.marydanielhobson.com.
