Early life and education
Miranda was born on January 16, 1980, in New York City to Luz Towns-Miranda, a clinical psychologist, and Luis Miranda Jr., a political consultant.[1] He is of predominately Puerto Rican descent and also has distant Mexican, English, and African American ancestry.[10] [11] [12] His parents named him "Lin-Manuel" after a poem about the Vietnam War by Puerto Rican writer José Manuel Torres Santiago entitled "Spanish; Castilian: Nana roja para mi hijo Lin Manuel" ("Red Lullaby for My Son Lin Manuel").[13] [14] Miranda grew up in the Inwood neighborhood of Manhattan and was raised as a Catholic.[1] [15] [16] [17] [18] During childhood and his teens, Miranda spent at least one month each year with his grandparents in Vega Alta, Puerto Rico.[19] [20] Miranda has one older sister, Luz, who is the Chief Financial Officer of the MirRam Group, a strategic consulting firm in Government and Communications.[21]
Miranda attended Hunter College Elementary School and Hunter College High School.[22] Among his classmates was Chris Hayes, now a journalist. He was Miranda's first director when Miranda starred in a school play, described by Hayes as "a 20-minute musical that featured a maniacal fetal pig in a nightmare that [Miranda] had cut up in biology class".[23] His classmates also included Immortal Technique, a rapper who had bullied Miranda, although the two later became friends.[24] [25] Miranda began writing musicals at school.[26]
Miranda wrote the earliest draft of what would become his first Broadway musical, In the Heights, in 1999, during his sophomore year of college at Wesleyan University. After the show was accepted by Wesleyan's student theater company, Second Stage, Miranda added freestyle rap and salsa numbers, and the show was premiered there in 1999.[20] Miranda wrote and directed several other musicals at Wesleyan and acted in many other productions, ranging from musicals to William Shakespeare. He graduated from Wesleyan in 2002.[20] [27]

While on vacation in 2008, Lin-Manuel Miranda read Ron Chernow's biography of Alexander Hamilton. Inspired by the book, he wrote a rap about Hamilton that he performed for the White House Evening of Poetry, Music, and the Spoken Word on May 12, 2009, accompanied by Alex Lacamoire. Miranda later said he spent a year writing the Hamilton song "My Shot", revising it countless times so that every verse would reflect Alexander Hamilton's intellect.[51] By 2012, Miranda was performing an extended set of pieces based on the life of Hamilton, which he referred to as the Hamilton Mixtape. The New York Times called it "an obvious game changer".[52]
Hamilton: An American Musical premiered off-Broadway at The Public Theater in January 2015, directed by Thomas Kail. Miranda wrote the book and score and starred as the title character.[53] [54] The show received highly positive reviews,[55] and its engagement was sold out.[56] Chernow and Miranda received the 2015 History Makers Award from the New York Historical Society for their work in creating the musical.[57] The show began previews on Broadway in July 2015 at the Richard Rodgers Theatre and officially opened on August 6, 2015,[58] earning positive reviews.[59] On the first night of Hamilton previews, over 700 people lined up for lottery tickets.[60] The Hamilton ticket lottery evolved into Ham4Ham, a series of outdoor mini-performances for lottery participants that was hosted daily by Miranda and cast members for over a year, until August 31, 2016.[61]
Miranda earned a 3% royalty on each performance of Hamilton, earning him $12.7 million by July 2017.[62] [63] Hamilton won the Tony Award for Best Musical; Miranda won Tony Awards for Best Original Score and Best Book of a Musical and was nominated for Best Actor in a Musical. Miranda won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama for the musical, and the Hamilton cast album won the Grammy Award for Best Musical Theater Album.

On March 15, 2016, members of the cast of Hamilton performed at the White House and hosted workshops; Miranda performed freestyle rap from prompts held up by President Obama.[65] In April 2016, Miranda and Jeremy McCarter published Hamilton: The Revolution, a book describing Hamiltons journey from conception to Broadway success. It also discusses the sense of cultural revolution that permeates the show.[66]
Miranda gave his last performance in Hamilton on July 9, 2016,[67] but vowed to return to the show.[68] In 2017, he announced that he would reprise the role for one night in celebration of President Obama's commutation of the sentence of Oscar López Rivera.[69]

Ferré Performing Arts Center in Puerto Rico from January 11–27, 2019, for which the engagement was sold out in three hours in November 2018.[74] [75] In a review, Chris Jones praised "deeper on-stage emotions" in Miranda's reprisal, as well as improved vocal and dance technique than on Broadway.[76] In March that same year he played King Arthur in a benefit concert of Camelot at Lincoln Center opposite Solea Pfeiffer and Jordan Donica.[77]
In 2023, he wrote additional lyrics for the Broadway musical New York, New York.[78]

Moana opened in November 2016 and was a box office hit, earning positive reviews and praise from critics for Miranda's songwriting.[86] [87] [88] Miranda also sang the song "We Know the Way" in the film, and recorded a duet with Jordan Fisher of the song "You're Welcome", which was played over the film's end credits.[89] For the song "How Far I'll Go", Miranda received Golden Globe, Critics' Choice, Oscar, and Grammy Award nominations.[90] [91] [92] [93]
- – While working on Hamilton, Miranda contributed music for the Disney-distributed film Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015), writing a song for the scene in Maz Kanata's cantina, an homage to the classic Mos Eisley Cantina scene and song by Figrin D'an and the Modal Nodes.[94]

On November 7, 2008, Universal Pictures announced that they planned to adapt In the Heights as a feature film for release in 2011.[107] However, the project was canceled in March 2011,[108] reportedly due to the fact Universal was looking for a "bankable Latino star" like Shakira or Jennifer Lopez instead of unknown actors.[109] In January 2012, Miranda stated that the film adaptation was back under discussion;[110] in May 2016, it was announced that Miranda would co-produce the film with Harvey Weinstein and backing from The Weinstein Company.[111] On June 10, 2016, Jon M. Chu came on board to direct the film adaptation of the musical.[112] In the aftermath of numerous sexual misconduct allegations made against Weinstein, his producer credit on the film was removed, with the rights to the film eventually auctioned off to Warner Bros. for $50 million.[113] While Miranda originated the role of Usnavi, he felt he was too old to star as Usnavi in the film adaptation. Ultimately, Miranda played the smaller role of Piraguero, the "Piragua Guy", in the film. He was quoted as saying the Broadway production was "...a miraculous experience. I went from substitute teacher to Broadway composer. I will never make a leap that big again in my life. I was very content to let Anthony Ramos and this incredible cast have their own experience."[114] Miranda also served as producer and acted alongside Anthony Ramos,[115] Corey Hawkins,[116] Leslie Grace,[117] and Jimmy Smits.[118] The film was set for release on June 26, 2020,[119] but was pulled from the schedule due to the COVID-19 pandemic's impact on the film industry.[120] It was released in theaters and temporarily on HBO Max on June 10, 2021.[121]

Miranda was cast as Lee Scoresby in the BBC series television adaptation of His Dark Materials (2019).[144] Daniel Fienberg of The Hollywood Reporter praised Miranda in his review writing, "[While] I appreciate that Miranda feels initially miscast as Pullman's paragon of cowboy American masculinity...[he] forces you to reconstruct an image of American manliness around him, making him exactly what the series needs".[145]
2019–present
He appears as Hermes, messenger of the gods, in Percy Jackson and the Olympians, which premiered on Disney+ on December 19, 2023.[146]
Personal life
Family
Miranda and his wife, Vanessa Nadal, attended high school together and married in 2010. Nadal is a graduate of Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and the Fordham University School of Law. She was a lawyer at the law firm Jones Day from 2010 to 2016.[147] At the wedding reception, Miranda, along with the wedding party, performed the Fiddler on the Roof song "To Life".[148] [149]
Miranda and Nadal have two sons: Sebastian (b. 2014) and Francisco (b. 2018).[150] [151] His son Sebastian was named after the Jamaican crab from The Little Mermaid, one of his favorite films, the reason for which he took the job of composing the music for live-action version.[152] Sebastian was the first name listed in the production babies credits of Moana, for which Miranda wrote the songs.[153] Miranda's son Francisco is listed as a production baby in the credits for Vivo.
Miranda discovered that he is related to artists Residente and iLe of Calle 13 during a 2009 concert by the group in San Juan, Puerto Rico, where Miranda was invited to perform. Backstage, the mother of Residente and ILE revealed their connection to Gilberto Concepción de Gracia, founder of the Puerto Rican Independence Party.[154] [155] [156] Miranda and Residente have since confirmed the relationship.[157] [158] [159] [160] In 2017, Miranda performed on the opening track of Residente's self-titled debut album.[161]
Miranda is a cousin of professional baseball player José Miranda.[162]
Activism
After a meeting with President Barack Obama in March 2016,[163] Miranda joined U.S. Senators Kirsten Gillibrand, Chuck Schumer, Elizabeth Warren, and other Democratic lawmakers to call for congressional action to back a Senate bill in Washington that would allow Puerto Rico to declare bankruptcy and significantly ease its $70 billion government-debt burden.[164] Miranda was particularly active in the wake of Hurricane Maria's devastation in Puerto Rico,[165] [166] and by December 2017, proceeds from his song "Almost Like Praying" helped the Hispanic Federation raise $22 million for rescue efforts and disaster relief.[167] [168]
Miranda uses proceeds from Hamilton to support Graham Windham, a nonprofit adoption agency founded by Elizabeth Schuyler Hamilton.[169] Miranda performs at their fundraising gala benefits in New York City and helps to fundraise for children in foster care.[170]
He performed "Found/Tonight" with Ben Platt at the March for Our Lives anti-gun violence rally in Washington, D.C., on March 24, 2018.[171] [172]
In order to raise money for Puerto Rico's reconstruction after being struck by hurricanes Irma and María, including at least $15 million to be channeled through the Flamboyán Foundation, Lin-Manuel decided to take, and once again play the protagonist role in Hamilton to his father's native Puerto Rico. The Miranda family donated approximately $1 million to bring the University of Puerto Rico theater up to par in order to use it as the venue for the musical's performance in January 2018. After tickets sold out in two hours for the three-week run, producers decided to move out of the university venue due to warnings of potential disruptions by a university workers' labor organization, and move the already-installed set to the Luis A. Ferré Performing Arts Center in Santurce, where the performances ran from January 11 to January 27. The production donated additional hundreds of thousands of dollars in improvements to the Ferré Performing Arts Center.[173]
In 2016, Miranda advocated for the passing of the Puerto Rico Oversight, Management, and Economic Stability Act (PROMESA), a law setting out to restructure the debt of Puerto Rico following Hurricane Maria.[174] The law led to budget cuts resulting in the closure of over 200 public schools, cuts to government labor benefits, and budget cuts at the University of Puerto Rico (UPR). It was met with protests, with UPR shutting down due to student strikes over the measures in 2017. Miranda became a target of criticism, especially when he performed Hamilton in Puerto Rico, given his lobbying on the bill as well as the musical's subject matter of the United States which many Puerto Ricans see as an oppressor of the island.[175] During the post show, Miranda met with protestors explaining that he had seen PROMESA as the only bipartisan option for the debt crisis previously, he does not support the austerity measures introduced and that he believes full debt-relief should now be pursued.[176] Subsequently, he has argued for full debt-relief for the island[177] and noted that the 2016 act has not led to the promised relief.[178]
Awards and honors
