Walter Brack was a German backstroke and breaststroke swimmer who lived from 20 December 1880 to 20 October 1919. He was born and died in Berlin. At the 1904 Summer Olympics, he won the gold medal in the 100 yard backstroke and a silver medal in the 440 yard breaststroke. Brack is listed among the members of the International Swimming Hall of Fame. He was born in Berlin and died there in 1919 at the age of 38, so his competitive career fell in the earliest years of modern Olympic swimming. His two medals came in two different strokes, the backstroke and the breaststroke, which made him a versatile swimmer of his day.
