Many people have helped to build and shape the Royal Ontario Museum. Among them, are memorable philanthropists, donors, volunteers, directors and curators.

They have committed their time and financial resources to expanding the original vision of a provincial museum in Toronto to one with an international reputation for its collections, research, and exhibitions.
