French sculptor, part of a family of sculptors. He was the son of the sculptor Pierre Hébert, and his sister Hélène Hébert (1825-1909) was also sculptor. He studied both with his father and with Jean-Jacques Feuchère. Hébert participated in the Salon de Paris and the Exposition Universelle (1855), created the allegorical statues La Comédie and Le Drame for the vaudeville theatre in Paris, and was awarded a Second Class Medal in 1872. Hébert was one of the few sculptors to work with the renowned bronze fondeur Georges Servant, and their artistic collaboration resulted in pieces of the Neo-Grecian and Egyptian Revival style. //
