Juan Francisco Noli (J. F. Noli) (30 August 1896 – 23 March 1960) was an Argentine tango and milonga musician and composer, author of famous tangos such as "Tierra Negra" and many others performed by several of the most important singers of his time.

Life
Noli was born into a middle-class family in Caballito, Buenos Aires, Argentina on 30 August 1960. He was attracted to the arts from an early age, as well as his brother Ernesto Noli. He wrote a few songs that became well-known within the tango community (including, the "Abran Cancha", "Tierra Negra", "Mambru", "Quien te ha de Querer", "San Benito Palermo", "Caifas", "Buena Yunta", "Che Italiano", "Quinielero", "Pura Parada", "Pan Nuestro").

Noli, together with Canaro, Discépolo, was among the individuals who helped organized the Argentine Society of Music Authors and Composers Sociedad Argentina de Autores y Compositores de Música SADAIC with the purpose to help protect the intellectual property rights of authors and facilitate the collection of their royalties.

Noli died on 23 March 1960.
