Sylvio or Silvio Paul Cator (October 19, 1900 – July 21, 1952)[1][2] was a Haitian athlete most successful in the long jump.

A month later, on September 9, 1928, Sylvio Cator broke Edward Hamm's two-month-old world record with a 7.93 m jump at the 1924 Olympic stadium near Paris.

He participated one more time in the long jump at the 1932 games in Los Angeles, where he took the 9th place.

[5] Stade Sylvio Cator, a multi-use stadium in that city, was named after him and was finished in the year of his death in Port-au-Prince.

In 1958, Haiti issued a series of seven stamps commemorating Cator's Olympic medal and world record 30 years before.
