Tom Feher was born in Budapest, grew up in New York and has lived in the Pacific Northwest since 1968. His interest in photography began in the 1960s and over the next twenty years became a major passion in his life, eventually leading to him pursue photography on a full-time basis. He is largely self-taught, with workshops and community college classes adding some formal basis for his training.

For several years he did traditional silver-gelatin landscape work, but in the mid-1990s learned platinum-palladium printing from David Michael Kennedy, and produced a large body of work in that medium. However, in 2006, a severe reaction possibly related to one of the chemicals involved convinced him to give up the darkroom and convert his work to purely digital format.

Tom has had numerous group and one-person shows in the United States and elsewhere. His work can be found in collections here and abroad, and in the permanent collection of the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, Texas.

Tom is currently working on two books, one showcasing over ten years of his black and white work in Mexico and the other detailing the lives and work of a group of indigenous women weavers in Miramar, a small isolated pueblo in the state of Oaxaca, Mexico.
