HAGERTY, Duane P.
HAGERTY, Duane P. (Dubuque, IA, June 5, 1966--Dubuque, IA, Dec. 28, 2024) Duane was born to Patrick and Judith (Kronlage) Hagerty. Raised on his family’s farm near Bankston, Duane attended Farley-Bankston Catholic School before continuing his education at Western Dubuque High School, where he graduated with the Class of 1984.
Duane continued his education at the University of Northern Iowa where he earned a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science, magna cum laude, in 1988. He then attended the University of Minnesota Law School, where he earned his Juris Doctor, cum laude, in 1991. Afterward, he practiced real estate law in Des Moines and Chicago.
In 2010, Duane chose to follow his passion for history and architecture and changed his career focus to historic property redevelopment. He earned a Master of Science in Historic Preservation from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Following his graduation, he worked in the field of historic preservation as both a consultant and, since 2015, as the President and CEO of Heritage Works, a nonprofit preservation organization based in Dubuque.
His dedication to historic preservation and education left a profound impact benefiting the entire Tri-State area. Duane helped to save such landmarks as STEEPLE SQUARE, ST. RAPHAEL'S CATHEDRAL, UNITARIAN UNIVERSALIST CHURCH and by inspiring others to protect and save historic structures.
