Edwin Franko Goldman (January 1, 1878 - February 21, 1956) was a Jewish American musician. He is one of America's prominent band composers of the early 20th century. He composed over one hundred and fifty works, more notably his marches. He is known for founding the renowned Goldman Band of New York City and the American Bandmasters Association. Goldman's works are known for their pleasant and catchy tunes, as well as their fine trios and solos. He also encouraged audiences to whistle/hum along to his marches. This has become a tradition with his most famous march "On the Mall".
