Easily one of the most famous, if not *the* most famous, Americans in Japanese history, Commodore Perry is known for "opening" up Japan to trade with the West in 1853-54. Never mind that Japan wasn't really "closed", but, sparing you the fine details, the coming of Commodore Perry marks serious dramatic changes for Japan, and is a key contributing cause, many would argue, to the downfall of the Tokugawa shogunate. Doesn't get much bigger than that.
