But with the explosive popularity of the Broadway musical Hamilton, that statement is no longer accurate. Hamilton fever swept America, and he became one of the most popular Founding Fathers, as fans of the musical flocked to historic sites and bought out shelves of books associated with him. Hamilton was not just important in the founding of America. He was also a fascinating historical figure and tireless public servant. #AlexanderHamilton #FoundingFathers #WeirdHistory Chapters View all Lin-Manuel Miranda Singer/Playwright 0:01 Alexander Hamilton One of the Founding Fathers of the United States 0:47 James Hamilton Alexander's Father 2:25 Alexander Hamilton Laird of Grange/Alexander's Grandfather 2:28 Rachel Faucette Alexander's Mother 2:37 Johann Michael Lavien Rachel's Estranged Husband 3:02\n
