John Cooper (around 1570 - 1626), also known as Giovanni Coprario or Coperario, was an English composer, viol player and lutenist.
John Cooper (July 17, 1923 - December 24, 2000) was a co-founder, with his father Charles Cooper, of the Cooper Car Company. Born in Kingston, Surrey, England, he became an auto racing legend with his rear-engined chassis design that would eventually change the face of the sport at its highest levels, from Formula One to the Indianapolis 500.
