Waterson, Berlin & Snyder, Inc. was, during the 1920s, one of the largest music publishers of popular sheet music in the country. The firm was based in New York City. What began as the
Ted Snyder Company in 1908 evolved into
Waterson, Berlin & Snyder, Inc., in 1918 when its founder,

Irving Berlin (1888–1989). Berlin had been Ted Snyder's staff lyricist since 1909.
