William Pierce
William Pierce (1933-2002) was a white supremacist leader who founded the neo-Nazi National Alliance in 1974 and led the group until his death in 2002. During much of this time, the National Alliance was the largest neo-Nazi group in the United States, and Pierce was one of the highest-profile white supremacist leaders. Pierce is also renowned in far-right circles as the author of The Turner Diaries, a novel written under the pseudonym Andrew Macdonald. See also: The Turner Diaries
