John Curtis Perry also known as John Perry (born 18 July 1930)[3] is an East Asian and Oceanic studies professor and historian. He is the Henry Willard Denison Professor Emeritus of History at the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy, Tufts University.[4][5][6][7][8] He was also the director of that school's Maritime Studies program[9] and founding president of the Institute for Global Maritime Studies, until his retirement in 2014.[10][11]

Perry has written several history books and articles on topics including Pacific Asia-US relations, the American occupation of Japan, American expansionism toward the Pacific Ocean, and Singapore's history. His writing style has been characterized for artfully conveying history to the general reader with pith, wit, and clarity.[4][12][13][14][15][16] The Japanese government awarded him the Imperial decoration of the Order of the Sacred Treasure for his contributions to US-Japan relations.[2][3]
