Isaak Osipovich Dunayevsky (Исаак Осипович Дунаевский in Russian) (January 18(30), 1900 - July 25, 1955, Moscow) was a Soviet composer who specialized in "light music" for operetta and film comedies. He was named a People's Artist of the USSR (1950) and was awarded the USSR State Prize (twice in 1941, 1951), two orders, and many medals. His son Maksim, also a well-known composer, continues the traditions of his father in musical and operetta.
