Stresemann, Gustav 1878-1929
German politician and Nobel Prize winner
He was born in Berlin. Entering the Reichstag in 1907 as a National Liberal, he rose to become leader of that party, and after World War I founded and led its successor, the German People's Party. He was Chancellor of the new German (Weimar) Republic for a few months in 1923, when, and as Minister of Foreign Affairs (1923-29), he pursued a policy of conciliation, and in 1925 negotiated the Locarno Pact of mutual security with Aristide Briand and Austen Chamberlain. He secured the entry of Germany into the League of Nations in 1926, and shared with Briand the 1926 Nobel Peace Prize for that year.
