John Philip Sousa Portuguese 1854 – March 6, 1932 was an American composer and conductor of the late Romantic era, known primarily for American military and patriotic marches.

Among his best-known marches are "The Stars and Stripes Forever" (National March of the United States of America), "Semper Fidelis" (Official March of the United States Marine Corps), "The Liberty Bell", "The Thunderer" and "The Washington Post".
