Clifford Ambrose Truesdell III, (February 18, 1919January 14, 2000) was an American mathematician, natural philosopher, historian of mathematics, and polemicist.

Truesdell founded (in 1957), and was editor-in-chief of, the journal Archive for Rational Mechanics and Analysis, and the journal "Archive for the History of Exact Sciences," which were unusual in several ways, perhaps the most novel being they accepted papers in English, French, German, or Latin.
