Doug DuBois

Doug DuBois (born 1960) is an American photographer[1] based in Syracuse, New York. He is an associate professor and department chair of Art Photography at the College of Visual and Performing Arts at Syracuse University.[2]

The bulk of DuBois' photography is portraiture, and he is well known for photographs of intimate familial scenes.[3] He is among a group of contemporary American photographers, including Philip-Lorca diCorcia, Laurie Simmons, Cindy Sherman, and Tina Barney, whose re-imagined depictions of domestic spaces anticipated the transformations of family life among a "tidal wave of late-capitalist individualism and aspiration."[4]

DuBois is a recipient of a 2012 Guggenheim Fellowship, and his work is in the collections of MoMA in New York, SFMOMA in San Francisco, LACMA and the Getty in Los Angeles, the Library of Congress in Washington, D.C., and the Victoria and Albert Museum in London.[5]
