Alexander Hamilton's Birthday
Date: January 12, 2013

Can Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr make peace for one day? Historian and tour operator Jimmy Napoli will present his talk entitled “Alexander Hamilton: The Little Lion” which will focus on America's most under-rated founder. Napoli will discuss Hamilton’s life, work and often scandalous history as George Washington's genius protégé. From his humble beginning in the West Indies to his shocking death in New Jersey, no person in American history has ever had a greater influence on our national character without reaching the presidency.
This event is free but advanced registration is required. Call (212) 923-8008 to register.
Start time: 1:00 pm
End time: 2:30 pm
