Barnum Brown (1873 to 1963)
During the course of his life, Barnum Brown discovered many species of dinosaurs, and named quite a few as well. He named Anchiceratops (1914), Ankylosaurus (1908), Corythosaurus (1914), Hypacrosaurus (1913), Kritosaurus (1910), Leptoceratops (1914), Prosaurolophus (1916), Saurolophus (1912), and the family Ankylosauridae (1908). He co-named Pachycephalosaurus (1943) and Dromaeosaurus (1922) with E. M. Schlaikjer.
An excellent book about the life of Barnum Brown is Bones for Barnum Brown: Adventures of a Dinosaur Hunter by Roland T. Bird, published in 1985.
