William Zuk
William Zuk was born in New York City to Alex and Mary Zuk (née Zelinka), immigrants to the United States from Ukraine, on July 6, 1924. He died on July 28, 2005. He was an American engineer, architect, author, teacher, and futurist. After serving in the U.S. Navy during World War II, Zuk taught at the University of Virginia for 37 years. His career there began in the Civil Engineering school in 1958. In 1964 he transferred to the School of Architecture, where he taught structures until 1992, retiring as Professor Emeritus.
He authored several books, most notably ''Kinetic Architecture'', with co-author Roger Clark, see Kinetic architecture; numerous experimental structural engineering articles; and many technical articles. During his years at UVA, he also served as research engineer for the Virginia Department of Transportation. The term ''kinetic architecture'' was coined by Zuk and Roger H. Clark in the early 1970s, when "dynamic spatial design problems were explored in mechanical systems." (Zuk and Clark 1970).〔Soft Responsive Kinetic Systems, ACACIA 2011 Proceedings, by Chin Koi Khoo, Jane Burry, Mark Burry〕
== Education and The Early Years ==

Zuk received his undergraduate degree (BSCE) from Cornell University in Ithaca, NY, in 1944. Upon graduation, he enlisted in the United States Navy as ensign, and was stationed in Saipan, Mariana at the end of WWII, from 1945–1946. Upon his return to the United States, he resumed his academic studies, completing his Masters degree (MSE) at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore in 1947. He married Constance Prymak in 1948; three children were born to the couple while they were living near Denver Colorado. Zuk brought his family east in 1953 to acquire a Doctorate (Ph.D in Structural Engineering) from Cornell University in 1955. He subsequently moved to Charlottesville, Virginia, to begin his teaching career at the University of Virginia. His fourth child was born in Charlottesville in 1956.
