We identify the extreme points of the unit sphere of the Lorentz space Lw,1 This yields a characterization of the surjective isometries of Lw,1(0,1). Our main result is that every element in the unit sphere of Lw,1 is the barycenter of a unique Borel probability measure supported on the extreme points of the unit sphere of Lw,1.
