Salomon Wolf Willy Schapiro (also Szapiro or Schapira) (25 May 1910 in Skala, Poland – 21 February 1944, executed at the fort Mont Valérien), was a Polish Jew, and a soldier in the FTP-MOI French liberation army in the Manouchian group).
Schapiro left Poland around 1930 and emigrated to Palestine. He developed a workers' organisation whose aim was to hunt the British power which controlled the region after the dismantling of the Ottoman empire in 1918. His activities brought about his arrest, then expulsion. He subsequently emigrated to Austria from 1933 to 1939.

Schapiro was condemned to death by the occupier, and he was executed by shooting at the fort Mont Valérien on 21 February 1944 with 23 members of the Manouchian group.
