Biographical Note

Edgar Hull (1904-1984), a physician, was a native of Pascagoula, Mississippi. He pursued pre-medical studies in New Orleans at Louisiana State University (1920-1921, 1922-1923) and earned his M.D. degree from Tulane University in 1923. After interning at Highland Sanitarium (hospital) in Shreveport, Hull remained briefly on the hospital’s staff before setting up a practice in Pleasant Hill, Louisiana, in 1929. In 1931 he returned to New Orleans to become a founding member of the staff and faculty of the new Louisiana State University Medical Center, through its affiliation with Charity Hospital. Hull was married twice, first in 1930 to Louise Parham of Shreveport, who died in 1937, and in 1937 to Mallory Page Warren, with whom he had one son.

Hull served the Department of Medicine at Louisiana State University School of Medicine as acting head (1939), head (1940-1954 and 1960-1964), and associate dean (1954-1966). His primary hospital appointments were Charity Hospital of Louisiana in New Orleans, Hotel Dieu, and Mercy Hospital, and as a consultant at Touro Infirmary and Baptist Hospital. In 1944 Hull was a Markle Fellow to Costa Rica and Guatemala; in 1950-1951, a Fulbright Professor to the University of Bologna; and in 1958, a consultant to Taiwan. A local pioneer in electrocardiography, Hull was a master, American College of Physicians, and a member of the American College of Gastroenterology, the American College of Cardiology, and the Catholic Physicians Guild.

In 1966 Hull moved to Shreveport to head the new Louisiana State University School of Medicine at Shreveport, where he worked with George R. Meneely, M.D., and others to achieve the difficult goal of accreditation by the AAMC. Hull served as dean until his retirement in 1973 to Pascagoula, Mississippi. He died in 1984. During his last years, he refuted the generally accepted scholarship concerning the circumstances of Huey P. Long’s death, claiming that medical treatment probably could not have saved Long and that his death did not result from medical incompetence. He also criticized his own failure to insist on an autopsy.
