KHOLOOD EID
Kholood Eid (b. 1987) is a Palestinian American documentary photographer, filmmaker and educator based in New York City. Her work explores the depths of vulnerability, the strength in survival, the beauty in adversity and the intersectionality of identity by blending portraiture, conceptual and reportage practices. Photography is a form of healing she uses for herself and those she connects with.
In 2020, she (alongside colleagues Michael H. Keller, Gabriel J.X. Dance and Nellie Bowles) received a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award for The New York Times Series "Exploited," which investigated the explosion of online child sexual assault material.
Eid has a masters degree in photojournalism from the University of Missouri and an amazingly strange dog named Professor. Professor is a Good Girl. In 2023, the Wet Nose Pawject was launched as an outlet for her obsessive love for dogs.
She’s a member of National Geographic’s Photo Society.
