Sir Philip de Zulueta (2 January 1925 – 15 April 1989) was a British diplomat and businessman. ==Career== Philip Francis de Zulueta, son of Francis de Zulueta, was educated at Beaumont College and New College, Oxford, where his studies were interrupted by World War II in which he served in the Welsh Guards. He entered the Diplomatic Service in 1949 and served in Moscow 1950–52 as private secretary to the Ambassador, Sir David Kelly. In 1955 de Zulueta was appointed to be a private secretary to the Prime Minister, Anthony Eden (normally one private secretary is seconded from the Foreign Office; this time there were two, de Zulueta and Guy Millard). He continued in this role under Harold Macmillan and Sir Alec Douglas-Home. He was knighted in 1963 in Macmillan's resignation honours.〔(The London Gazette, 22 November 1963 )〕 De Zulueta resigned from the Foreign Service in 1964 and became a merchant banker. He was a director of Hill Samuel 1965–72 and its chief executive 1973–76. He was chairman of Antony Gibbs Holdings 1976–81. De Zulueta was a member of the Franco-British Council from 1972 and chairman of its British section from 1981. After his death the French Ambassador wrote to ''The Times'' about de Zulueta: :"He was a clear thinking, determined, optimistic and committed friend to whose memory I should like to pay tribute and express my deep gratitude, both in my own name and even more in that of my country."〔(Sir Philip de Zulueta ), ''The Times'', London, 27 April 1989, page 18〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Philip de Zulueta」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
