Wilson"s two feature films highlight gay male Asian-White relationships. According to an online source, "Todd believed much of queer cinema suffered from deficiencies such as overall negativity, downer endings, and lack of emotional and physical payoff. Todd infused his films with positive likable characters, happy endings, and emotional and titillating payoffs." Born in Troy, New York, Wilson got into still photography as a boy and graduated from Rochester Institute of Technology and Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute.
He was active in the gay student organization at RPI and started a radio show there.
He died in San Francisco, California of lung cancer. His archive is housed at the Gay and Lesbian Historical Society in San Francisco.
