William Prager (born Willy Prager) was an engineer and mathematician of German origin who became an American citizen, recognized for decisive contributions to the theory of plasticity and the mechanics of solids. Trained in civil engineering in Darmstadt, he began his academic career in Germany and became one of the youngest professors when he took charge of the Institute of Mechanics in Karlsruhe in 1932. Racial persecution under the Nazi regime forced him into exile: he taught in Turkey, writing textbooks in Turkish, and later emigrated to the United States during World War II. At Brown University he established an important center for the study of plasticity, supervising researchers such as Daniel C. Drucker and influencing applications in soil mechanics. He founded and edited the Quarterly of Applied Mathematics for two decades, promoting dissemination in applied mathematics. Prager maintained an international career, also serving as a consultant at IBM’s research center in Zürich and holding the chair of applied mechanics at the University of California, San Diego. He received numerous honors, including election to U.S. scholarly academies and medals from engineering societies. In his honor, the Society of Engineering Science established the William Prager Medal to recognize outstanding contributions to solid mechanics.
