Robert William Kozaren (June 5, 1934 – 2007), born in Detroit, Michigan, was an American of Polish descent, and a Democratic politician.
He served as Mayor of the City of Hamtramck, Michigan from 1980 to 1997.
Elected to nine terms, was Hamtramck's longest-serving mayor. Kozaren was president of the city council (and a former deputy city clerk) when he entered the primary for the mayoral election in the fall of 1979, at a time when Hamtramck came to symbolize the Rust Belt.
He beat the sitting mayor "with a message of hope and renewal".
At six-foot-six, Kozaren cut an impressive figure walking down the street and enjoyed being personable with the people of his town; his enthusiasm and people skills are cited as a reason for his success at the polls and his eighteen-year reign as mayor.
