Ronald Joseph (born October 9, 1944) was an American figure skater. Alongside his skating partner, sister Vivian Joseph, Joseph took 2nd place at the Midwest Skating Championship in 1957 before winning a number of awards between 1961 and 1965, notably holding the top prize in the U.S. Junior National Champions (1961), U.S. Championship (1965) and North American Championship (1965). For a time they were awarded as bronze medalists in the 1964 Winter Olympic Games due to the disqualification of the German silver medal-winning team of Hans-Jürgen Bäumler and Marika Kilius, but after that team was reinstated in 1987, they were reinstated at 4th.
