Active Galactic Nuclei are not an exotic phenomenon but a fundamental phase of galaxy evolution, as it has been realized in the last few years. The well known relations between BH mass and host galaxy structural parameters are probably the signature of AGN feedback on host galaxies implying that the cosmological evolution of galaxies cannot be disconnected from the redshift evolution of AGNs and the growth of supermassive black holes. In this talk I will review our current understanding of the redshift evolution of supermassive black holes derived from AGN luminosity functions and measurements of BH masses at high redshift. I will briefly discuss means to estimate BH masses in high redshift AGNs and what has been learned about the redshift evolution of BH-galaxy scaling relations.
