Tom Hutton Tom Hutton is an internationally recognized clinical and research neurologist and award winning educator. A recognized expert on Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease, Dr. Hutton’s professional career was split between academic medicine and private practice. He is the author/editor of over 100 professional articles and chapters and 8 professional books, several of which are targeted to patients and caregivers.

Carrying the Black Bag is his first book for a general audience. Inspired by those whose lives prompted his professional sojourn, he lovingly tells his patients’ stories, describes their immense reservoirs of courage and perseverance, and depicts their struggles to achieve balance for their disrupted lives. He shares these stories of pathos and humor in the hope they will inspire and help other patients, family members and health care professionals. He invites the reader into his exam room to meet remarkable people with uncommon coping skills and wonderful tales.

He is currently working on his second book, Retiring the Black Bag.

Retired from medicine in 2001, Tom and Trudy, his wife of 44 years, live on a small ranch in the Texas Hill Country where he ranches cattle, writes about neurological patients, Border collies, and retirement.
