Steele Prize (2010) }} William Edgar Fulton (born August 29, 1939) is an American mathematician, specializing in algebraic geometry. Education and careerHe received his undergraduate degree from Brown University in 1961 and his doctorate from Princeton University in 1966. His Ph.D. thesis, written under the supervision of Gerard Washnitzer, was on The fundamental group of an algebraic curve. Fulton worked at Princeton and Brandeis University from 1965 until 1970, when he began teaching at Brown. In 1987 he moved to the University of Chicago.[1] He is, as of 2011, a professor at the University of Michigan.[2] Fulton is known as the author or coauthor of a number of popular texts, including Algebraic Curves and Representation Theory. Awards and honorsIn 1996 he received the Steele Prize for mathematical exposition for his text Intersection Theory.[1] Fulton is a member of the U. S. National Academy of Sciences and was elected a foreign member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences in 2000. In 2010, he was awarded the Steele Prize for Lifetime Achievement.[3] In 2012 he became a fellow of the American Mathematical Society.[4] Selected works
