William Pick was born in 1876 into a poor working-class family in Guben. In 1895, he joined the German Social Democratic Party. Due to disappointment with the cooperation between the party leadership and conservative forces during World War I, he became an early member of the Spartak Alliance and participated in the establishment of the German Communist Party. In 1933, he was forced to flee Germany under Hitler's rule. In April 1946, the German Social Democratic Party and the German Communist Party merged to form the Unified Socialist Party of Germany, and together with Otto Grotivor, they were elected as one of the two chairpersons of the Unified Socialist Party of Germany. When Democratic Germany was founded in 1949, he became the only president of East Germany.
