Andrew Michael Bruckner (born December 17, 1932) is an American retired mathematician, known for his contributions to real analysis. ^[1]

He got his PhD in mathematics from University of California, Los Angeles (1959) on the dissertation Minimal Superadditive Extensions of Superadditive Functions advised by John Green (mathematician). ^[2] He joined the faculty at University of California, Santa Barbara. The "Andy Award" has been given annually in his name since 1978, to significant contributors to real analysis. ^{[3] [4]}

In 2012 he became a fellow of the American Mathematical Society. ^[5]
