In 2013 he received an Artist Initiative grant from the MN State Arts Board to create American Manifesto, an activist book inspired by Thomas Paine’s Common Sense. This book then went on to win an AIGA design award. Todd’s third book was a retelling of Frankenstein, celebrating the 200th anniversary of Mary Shelley’s masterpiece. This book was printed in miniature along with a leather looking box which was designed to vend from a restored vintage cigarette machine. Thyberg has taught letterpress at the MN Center for Book Arts (MCBA) as well as private tuturing at the Jamestown Arts Center. Todd’s most recent accomplishment was receiving a 2023 McKnight Book Arts Fellowship.

He recently returned from sailing to Antarctica on the tall ship Europa and is currently working on a body of work based upon his experience.
