Henry Bishop (c. 1837/1838 - November 3, 1907), known to the public as both "Bishop the Bird Man" and the "Gold Fish King," was a Baltimore-area fish breeder (aquarist), bird seller, zoo supplier, and pet store founder. A German immigrant and entrepreneur, Bishop supplied aquariums and pet owners across the nation and is credited with revolutionizing the U.S. aquarium business. He was reputed to have the largest goldfish farm in the world. For his animal contributions to the city's zoological park, he was affectionately known as the "Father of the Baltimore Zoo".
