William Vere Cruess (1886 -1968) was a famous American food scientist and pioneer of fruit-based beverages, syrups, and concentrates. His research had a significant impact on the revival of the Californian wine industry post-Prohibition, and he was one of the first people to study the use of freezing as a method of storage for fruits and fruit products.
