Tito Barbini (born 26 September 1945) is an Italian politician and writer who served as president of the Province of Arezzo from 1980 to 1985 and later as a member of the Regional Council of Tuscany and regional assessor.

Life and career

Born in Cortona, Barbini was a leading member of the Italian Communist Party (PCI), serving as secretary of its provincial federation in Arezzo and as a member of the party's Central Committee. He was elected mayor of Cortona in 1970 and was re-elected in 1975 before becoming president of the Province of Arezzo in 1980.[2]

In 1990, Barbini was elected to the Regional Council of Tuscany for the PCI and joined the regional government as assessor for social welfare.[3][4] Re-elected in 1995 as a member of the Democratic Party of the Left (PDS), he served as regional assessor responsible for urban planning, transport, roads and housing.[5] Following the 2000 regional election, he remained in the regional government as an external assessor for agriculture.[1][2][6]

After leaving public office, Barbini gradually withdrew from active politics and devoted himself to writing. He became known as a travel writer, publishing several books based on his journeys and experiences around the world.[7][8]
