John Hooper Harvey (25 May 1911 – 18 November 1997) was a British architectural historian, who specialised in writing on English Gothic architecture and architects. Paul Crossley has described him as "the most prolific and arguably the most influential writer on Gothic architecture in the post-war years".〔Crossley 2006, p. 473.〕 He made extensive use of archival sources, and is particularly remembered for having (through his study of ''Henry Yevele'' (1944) and his biographical dictionary of ''English Mediaeval Architects'' (1954)) helped dispel the myth that the architects of medieval buildings were anonymous figures of whom little could be discovered. He also published more generally on England in the later middle ages, and was a pioneer in the field of garden history. ==Early life== Harvey was born in London, the only child of William Harvey (1883–1962), architect, and his wife, Alice ''née'' Wilcox (1874–1958).〔Brock 2004.〕 He was educated at St John's School, Leatherhead, after which, in 1928, he joined the architectural practice of Sir Herbert Baker. While in Baker's office he studied architecture at the Regent Street Polytechnic. From 1933 to 1935 he travelled with his father in Palestine, helping survey ancient buildings. In 1936 he took a job with the Office of Works.
