Join Iowa’s insurance industry leaders as we recognize those who have made a lasting impact on our industry.

From humble beginnings nearly 160 years ago, Iowa’s insurance industry has grown to become a leading force worldwide — impacting financial services organizations around the globe. The Iowa Insurance Hall of Fame was created to celebrate this proud heritage, and to recognize its leaders. Their outstanding individual contributions and exemplary leadership form the backbone of Iowa’s insurance industry, preserve its present integrity, and provide inspiration for the vision, goals, and success of the next generation of insurance professionals.
