Raymond Dugrand was born on 13 January 1925. He joined the French Resistance in Haute-Vienne in 1943, in the midst of World War II.[1][2][3] He joined the French Communist Party in 1945, but later became an "anti-communist".[1] Meanwhile, he joined an underground network of activists who hid people sentenced to the death penalty.[1]


Dugrand attended a teachers college in Châteauroux until 1945, when he enrolled at the University of Paris to study geography.[1] He earned the agrégation in geography,[2][3] followed by a doctorate in geography.[1] His thesis supervisor was Pierre George.[1]



Career


Dugrand became a faculty member at the University of Montpellier, later known as Paul Valéry University, in 1963.[1][2][3] He was the author of three books and the co-author of two more books on the geography of the Languedoc. He also served on the editorial board of the L’Espace géographique, an academic journal.[1]


Upon Georges Frêche's election as the mayor of Montpellier in 1977, Dugrand became the head of urban planning for the city.[2][3] He served in this capacity until 2001.[1][2] During his tenure, he hired Spanish architect Ricardo Bofill to design the Antigone neighbourhood of Montpellier.[2] He also hired architects Paul Chemetov, Robert Croizet, François Fontès, Massimiliano Fuksas, Rob Krier, Emmanuel Nebout, Jean Nouvel, Christian de Portzamparc and Jean-Michel Wilmotte to design other buildings in Montpellier.[3]


The Avenue Raymond Dugrand in Montpellier was named in his honour in 2009.[2][3]
