Walter Rudin (May 2, 1921 – May 20, 2010[2]) was an Austrian-American mathematician and professor of Mathematics at the University of Wisconsin–Madison.[3]

In addition to his contributions to complex and harmonic analysis, Rudin was known for his mathematical analysis textbooks: Principles of Mathematical Analysis,[4] Real and Complex Analysis,[5] and Functional Analysis.[6] Rudin wrote Principles of Mathematical Analysis only two years after obtaining his Ph.D. from Duke University, while he was a C. L. E. Moore Instructor at MIT. Principles, acclaimed for its elegance and clarity,[7] has since become a standard textbook for introductory real analysis courses in the United States.[8]

Rudin's analysis textbooks have also been influential in mathematical education worldwide, having been translated into 13 languages, including Russian,[9] Chinese,[10] and Spanish.[11]
