Abstract	The first measurements of the W and Z cross sections in proton-proton collisions at sqrt{s} = 7 TeV using the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) have been completed. Cross sections in the electron and muon channels, as well as the combined cross section, are presented for both the W and the Z boson. The charge asymmetry of W production as a function of the psuedorapidity of the lepton has also been measured.
