Scott Joplin
Scott Joplin is most associated with ragtime music. One of his most famous pieces is 'Maple Leaf Rag'.
Scott Joplin was the composer of the Maple Leaf Rag, and was otherwise regarded as "the king of ragtime". Another interesting fact about Mr. Joplin is that he held most of his event's entrance cost at one cent, hence the name "Penny Rag".
