Salvatore Ronald Matano (born September 15, 1946) is an American prelate of the Catholic Church serving as the Bishop of Rochester. He previously served as Bishop of Burlington.

Salvatore Matano was born in Providence, Rhode Island to Salvatore and Mary (née Santaniello) Matano. After attending La Salle Academy and Our Lady of Providence Seminary College, where he obtained his bachelor's degree in philosophy, he was ordained to the priesthood by Bishop James Hickey on December 17, 1971, in St. Peter's Basilica. From the Pontifical Gregorian University in Rome, Matano earned his Licentiate of Sacred Theology (1972) and Doctorate in Canon Law (1983).

He served as assistant pastor in Johnston (1972–1973) and a professor at his alma mater of Our Lady of Providence Seminary College (1972–77) before becoming Diocesan Director of Priests' Personnel in 1977. Matano was diocesan assistant Chancellor in 1980. He pursued his graduate studies in Rome until 1983. Upon his return, he served as Vicar for Administration and Co-Chancellor until 1991, when he was made secretary to the American nuncio, Archbishop Agostino Cacciavillan.
