Steven Paul Lalley (born 16 January 1954) is an American statistician and mathematician.[1]

Lalley graduated in 1976 with B.S. from Michigan State University.[2] He received in 1981 his Ph.D. from Stanford University with thesis Repeated Likelihood Ratio Tests for Curved Exponential Families under the supervision of David Siegmund.[3] After teaching at Columbia University and Purdue University, Lalley became in 1998 a professor of statistics at the University of Chicago and served as department chair from 2001 to 2005.[4]

He was an associate editor for the Annals of Statistics from 1988 to 1991. For the Annals of Probability he was an associate editor from 1991 to 1996[2] and editor-in-chief from 2003 to 2005.[5]

In 2012 Lalley was elected a Fellow of the American Mathematical Society.[6] In 2006 he was an invited speaker at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Madrid.[7]
