According to the Smithsonian's web site here are the 16 museums that are part of the Institute. The Indian museum has two locations, one in DC and one in NY so technically you could say the number is 17. If you add the planned museum and the virtual museum then you get 19.

The Smithsonian's museums are in Washington DC or nearby, with the exception of the Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum in New York City and the branch of the National Museum of the American Indian also in New York City.
There is not just one director of the Smithsonian. Each of the Smithsonian museums has its own director. However, directors of large-scale museums such as the Smithsonians earn hundreds of thousands of dollars each year.
