After completing his BA in Fine Art at the University of Sunderland in 1994, Richard Billingham burst onto the scene with his acclaimed series of photographs of his family, included in the notorious, Sensation: Young British Artists from the Saatchi Collection in 1997. This was shortly followed by his selection and subsequent winning of the Citibank Private Bank Photography prize in 1997. In 2001 he was shortlisted for Britain's Turner Prize, as well as having his work included in the 49th Venice Biennale.

Richard Billingham lives and works in London.
