JOHN HULBERT was brought up in St. Andrews, and studied medicine at Edinburgh University. After working in medical research he changed direction and worked for over 30 years as a general practitioner. In 1979 he and his wife and three children moved to the Perthshire village of Longforgan, in the Carse of Gowrie. In 1995 he was elected to Perth & Kinross Council, and served as Provost from 2007 - 2012. In 2010 Provost Hulbert led Perth's high profile 800th anniversary celebrations and then the successful campaign to recover the ancient dignity of City Status, which had been unceremoniously removed when Local government was reorganised in 1975. As Provost he studied Perth's history and development, and gained a unique insight into its societies and institutions. He has visited and photographed all of its important buildings. This information has been crystallised into the first comprehensive guide book for modern Perth.
