Andrew Wiles (born April 11, 1953, Cambridge, England) is a British mathematician who proved Fermat’s last theorem. In recognition, he was awarded a special silver plaque—he was beyond the traditional age limit of 40 years for receiving the gold Fields Medal —by the International Mathematical Union in 1998.
"Andrew J. Wiles is one of very few mathematicians – if not the only one – whose proof of a theorem has made international headline news. In 1994 he cracked Fermat’s Last Theorem, which at the time was the most famous, and long-running, unsolved problem in the subject’s history...
