Surveys of AGN taken in the optical, UV, and soft X-rays miss an important population of obscured AGN only visible in the hard X-rays and mid-IR wavelengths. The SWIFT BAT survey in the hard X-ray range (14-195 keV) has provided a uniquely unbiased sample of AGN unaffected by galactic or circumnuclear absorption. Optical imaging of this unbiased sample provides a new opportunity to understand how the environments of the host galaxies are linked to AGN. In 2008, we observed 90 of these targets at Kitt Peak with the 2.1m in the SDSS ugriz bands over 17 nights. Using these observations and SDSS data we review the relationships between color, morphology, merger activity, stellar mass, star formation, and AGN luminosity for a sample of 145 AGN Hard X-ray Selected AGN.
