A native of Hamilton, Ontario, Hugh Robertson took drawing lessons from John S. Gordon at technical school before completing a degree in Architecture at McGill University in 1925. Three years later, while practicing as an architect, he embarked on a sketching tour of Europe. Robertson subsequently held one-man shows from 1932 to 1943 in Toronto, Hamilton, London, Montreal and Ottawa. He exhibited at the C.N.E., R.C.A., and O.S.A., and won the gold medal of the Hamilton Art Association in 1937.
