Kim Sajet (born 1964/1965) is a Nigerian-born Dutch art historian and curator who was the director of the Smithsonian Institution's National Portrait Gallery. Appointed in 2013, Sajet became the first woman to hold this post. During her tenure at the museum, she worked to increase representation of women and minorities in the Portrait Gallery's collection.
In May 2025, Sajet's appointment was purportedly terminated by a directive from President Donald Trump. The following month, she resigned her post.
