Hrvoje Hitrec (born 14 Julij 1943) is a Croatian writer, screenwriter, and politician. He is notable for his works for children and youth, most famous of his works being the novel (and later a very popular 1980s/90s TV series) Smogovci [hr], but Hitrec also wrote novels, film and TV scripts, dramas. He received several notable Croatian literary awards: "Ksaver Šandor Gjalski," "Ivana Brlić Mažuranić" and "Grigor Vitez."[1]
Hitrec was also a close associate of Franjo Tuđman, the first President of Croatia and an early member of his nationalist Croatian Democratic Union (HDZ) party.[2] In the early 1990s he served as director of the state broadcaster Croatian Radiotelevision, information minister in the government of Josip Manolić, and also a member of Croatian Parliament.[2]
Hitrec headed a right-wing independent list in the 2007 parliamentary elections.[3] He identified himself as eurosceptic, and won 709 votes, or 0.26% of the vote in the VII district.[4]
