Hull honed his expertise at Boston’s North Bennet Street School, where he trained in the art of traditional building and historic preservation before founding Hull Millwork & Hull Homes in Fort Worth. He has authored five books on historic millwork; his most recent, Millwork: The Design and Manufacturing of Historic Millwork from 1740-1950, was released this spring.
Highland Park Village is the presenting sponsor for the luncheon, which is co-chaired by Lauren Cooper and Porter Fuqua. D Home, a sister publication of Park Cities People, is the presenting magazine sponsor.
