Commodore Matthew C. Perry
Japan was pressured to allow trade with the Unites States
In 1852, Matthew Perry left Norfolk, Virginia for Japan to pursue a Japanese trade treaty. He arrived at Uraga Harbor near Edo (early Tokyo) on July 8, 1853. Perry was told by representatives of the Tokugawa Shogunate to go to Nagasaki instead, which was the only Japanese port open to foreigners at the time.
You may be thinking of Matthew C. Perry, though it was not the first time he sailed to Japan.
Because of Perry's threats and show of force, Japan was pressured to allow trade with the United States through the establishment of a treaty called the Convention of Kanagawa.
