Alexander Hamilton

from HearSay with Cathy Lewis · host WHRO Public Media

Today Cathy talks with Bill Chrystal, a historical interpreter who portrays Alexander Hamilton. He was inspired to portray Hamilton after serving as moderator of The Jefferson Hour for ten years. During that time he discovered that Hamilton was reviled by many of his peers which sparked his curiosity about this founding father. Chrystal has since delved into the life of Hamilton and found him to be a model of success whose lessons translate to modern times. Join us as we talk about many things, including Hamilton's proclamation that no "Citizen of the United States should refrain from turkey on Thanksgiving Day." Tune in!
