Albert Speer (help·info) (March 19, 1905 – September 1, 1981) was born Berthold Konrad Hermann Albert Speer in Mannheim, Germany, the second of three sons. He is sometimes called 'the first architect of the Third Reich'. He was Hitler's chief architect in Nazi Germany and in 1942 became Hitler's minister for armaments and had considerable success reforming and streamlining Germany's war production. After the war Speer was tried at Nuremberg where he expressed remorse and was sentenced to 20 years in Spandau prison. After his release, he became a successful author, writing a number of semi-autobiographical works until his death in London in 1981 of natural
causes.
