Albert Hemstock Hodge (17 July 1875 – 31 December 1917[1] or 27 January 1918[2]) was a Scottish born (Port Ellen, on the island of Islay) British sculptor. He studied at the Glasgow School of Art under William Kellock Brown. Initially he worked as an architect with William Leiper, but his ability as a modeller led him to continue his career as a sculptor.[1]
In 1901 he moved to London, where he died in 1917 or 1918.[2]
