Charles A. Zimmermann (1861 — 16 January 1916) was an American author of marches and well-known music. A graduate of the Peabody Conservatory of Music in Baltimore , he was named bandmaster at the United States Naval Academy in 1887 in age 26. He served as the Academy’s bandmaster until his departure from a brain hemorrhage in 1916. He’s entombed in the Naval Academy cemetery.

Zimmerman composed his most well-known march, Anchors Aweigh, in 1906 when he was a Lieutenant in the Usa Navy. The words were composed by Alfred Hart Miles , a midshipman The march was meant in the start to function as a rousing melody for football matches.
