Youngest person to curate a museum (male)

The youngest person to curate a museum (male) is Anderson Taylor (USA, b. 4 September 2014) who is 9 years and 340 days old, as verified in Cambridge, Illinois, USA, on 10 August 2024.

Anderson's idea of opening a museum of his own, came in 2022 after a family trip to Scotland, where he visited the Staffin Dinosaur Museum in the Isle of Skye. Since that trip it became a dream of Anderson to have his own museum. It was not long until Anderson had collected and displayed fossils, minerals, gems and taxidermy animals in the lead up to his museum eventually opening in 2024. The public also supported Anderson's museum after he had done presentations to raise awareness and build interest. This resulted in supporters sending in items for the collection at Anderson's Cambridge Natural History Museum. An impressive feat at a youthful age!
