Lin-Manuel Miranda (/mænˈwɛl/; born January 16, 1980)[1] is an American songwriter, actor, singer, filmmaker, rapper, and librettist. He created the Broadway musicals In the Heights (2005) and Hamilton (2015), and the soundtracks for the animated films Moana (2016), Vivo, and Encanto (both 2021). He has received numerous accolades including a Pulitzer Prize, three Tony Awards, two Laurence Olivier Awards, two Primetime Emmy Awards, and five Grammy Awards, along with nominations for two Academy Awards. He received the Kennedy Center Honors in 2018.

Miranda made his Broadway debut in 2008, writing the music and lyrics for and starring in the musical In the Heights, which won the Tony Awards for Best Musical and Best Original Score[2] and the Grammy Award for Best Musical Theater Album.[3] It was later adapted as a 2021 film of the same name.[4] Miranda returned to Broadway in 2015, writing the script, music, and lyrics for as well as starring in the musical Hamilton, which was praised by critics and became a popular culture phenomenon.[5] Hamilton won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama and was nominated for a record 16 Tony Awards and won 11, including Miranda's first win for the Tony Award for Best Book of a Musical. The Hamilton cast recording spent 10 weeks atop Billboard's Top Rap Albums chart and became the eleventh-biggest album of the 2010s.[6]

A frequent collaborator of the Walt Disney Company, Miranda has written original songs for the studio. He gained two Academy Award for Best Original Song nominations for "How Far I'll Go" and "Dos Oruguitas" from Moana and Encanto, respectively. The song "We Don't Talk About Bruno" from Encanto broke various records and marked Miranda's first number-one song on the US Billboard Hot 100 and the UK Singles charts.[7][8] He starred as Jack in the musical fantasy Mary Poppins Returns (2018), for which he was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for Best Actor – Motion Picture Musical or Comedy. For his performance in the Disney+ live stage recording of Hamilton released in 2020, he received a Golden Globe and Primetime Emmy Award nominations. Miranda debuted as a film director with Tick, Tick...Boom! (2021).[9]

His television work includes recurring roles on The Electric Company (2009–2010) and His Dark Materials (2019–2022). Miranda hosted Saturday Night Live in 2016 and had a guest role on Curb Your Enthusiasm in 2018; he was nominated twice for the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Guest Actor in a Comedy Series. He has been politically active on behalf of Puerto Rico.[10] Miranda met with politicians in 2016 to speak out in favor of debt relief for Puerto Rico[10] and raised funds for rescue efforts and disaster relief after Hurricane Maria in 2017.[11]

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][12] He is of predominately Puerto Rican descent and also has distant Mexican, English, and African American ancestry.[13][14][15] His parents named him "Lin-Manuel" after a poem about the Vietnam War by Puerto Rican writer José Manuel Torres Santiago entitled "Nana roja para mi hijo Lin Manuel" ("Red Lullaby for My Son Lin Manuel").[16][17] Miranda grew up in the Inwood neighborhood of Manhattan and was raised as a Catholic.[1][18][19][20][21] During childhood and his teens, Miranda spent at least one month each year with his grandparents in Vega Alta, Puerto Rico.[22][23] Miranda has one older sister, Luz, who is the Chief Financial Officer of the MirRam Group, a strategic consulting firm in Government and Communications.[24]

Miranda attended Hunter College Elementary School and Hunter College High School.[25] 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".[26] His classmates also included Immortal Technique, a rapper who had bullied Miranda, although the two later became friends.[27][28] Miranda began writing musicals at school.[29]

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.[29] 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.[23] 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.[23][30]

Career

Theatre

2002–2010: In the Heights

Main article: In the Heights

In 2002, Miranda and John Buffalo Mailer worked with director Thomas Kail to revise In the Heights.[23][12][29] Playwright Quiara Alegría Hudes joined the team in 2004.[31][29] After premiering in Connecticut in 2005 and opening at the 37 Arts Theater off-Broadway in 2007, the musical went to Broadway, opening in March 2008.[23]

It was nominated for 13 Tony Awards, winning four, including Best Musical and Best Original Score.[2][29] It also won the Grammy Award for Best Musical Theater Album.[3] Miranda's performance in the leading role of Usnavi earned him a nomination for the Tony Award for Best Actor in a Musical. Miranda left the cast of the Broadway production on February 15, 2009.[32]

Miranda reprised the role when the national tour of In the Heights played in Los Angeles from June 23 to July 25, 2010.[33][34] He again joined the tour in San Juan, Puerto Rico.[35] Miranda rejoined the Broadway cast as Usnavi from December 25, 2010, until the production closed on January 9, 2011, after 29 previews and 1,185 regular performances.[36]

Miranda created other work for the stage during this period. He wrote Spanish-language dialogue and worked with Stephen Sondheim to translate into Spanish song lyrics for the 2009 Broadway revival of West Side Story.[37][38][29] During this time, he also performed at bar and bat mitzvahs.[29] In 2008, he was invited by composer-lyricist Stephen Schwartz to contribute two new songs to a revised version of Schwartz and Nina Faso's 1978 musical Working, which opened in May 2008 at the Asolo Repertory Theatre in Sarasota, Florida.[39]

During these years, Miranda worked as an English teacher at his former high school, wrote for the Manhattan Times as a columnist and restaurant critic, and composed music for commercials.[40]

In 2003, Miranda co-founded Freestyle Love Supreme,[41] a hip hop improv group that has toured the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, as well as the Aspen, Melbourne and Montreal Comedy festivals. The group created a limited television series for Pivot in 2014[42] and made its Broadway debut[43] on October 2, 2019, at the Booth Theatre. The self-titled show gained positive reviews.[44]

2011–2014: Bring It On and other theatrical work

Main article: Bring It On: The Musical

Miranda co-wrote the music and lyrics for Bring It On: The Musical with Tom Kitt and Amanda Green. Bring It On premiered at the Alliance Theatre in Atlanta, Georgia in January 2011.[45] The musical began a US national tour on October 30, 2011, in Los Angeles, California.[46][47] It played a limited engagement on Broadway at the St. James Theatre, beginning previews on July 12, and officially opening on August 1, 2012. It closed on December 30, 2012. It was nominated for Tony Awards in the categories of Best Musical and Best Choreography.[48]

In February 2012, Miranda appeared in Merrily We Roll Along, in the role of Charley, in an Encores! staged concert at New York City Center.

His theatrical achievements in 2014 included an Emmy Award for the song "Bigger!", which he and Kitt co-wrote for the opening number at the 67th Tony Awards.[49]

Miranda wrote music and lyrics for the one-act musical 21 Chump Street, and performed as narrator for the show's single performance at the Brooklyn Academy of Music on June 7, 2014. It was broadcast on National Public Radio's This American Life on June 20, 2014.[50] Later that month, he starred in the June 2014 Encores! revival of Jonathan Larson's Tick, Tick... Boom!, under the artistic direction of Jeanine Tesori. The show was directed by Oliver Butler.[51]

Earlier in 2014, he guest starred in a show by comedy duo The Skivvies.[52]

2011–2016: Hamilton

Main articles: Hamilton (musical) and Hamilton (2020 film)
Miranda in Hamilton, 2016

While on vacation in 2008, Lin-Manuel Miranda had 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.[53][16] 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".[54]

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.[55][56] The show received highly positive reviews,[57] and its engagement was sold out.[58] Chernow and Miranda received the 2015 History Makers Award from the New York Historical Society for their work in creating the musical.[59] The show began previews on Broadway in July 2015 at the Richard Rodgers Theatre and officially opened on August 6, 2015,[60] earning positive reviews.[61] On the first night of Hamilton previews, over 700 people lined up for lottery tickets.[62] 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.[63]

Miranda earned a 3% royalty on each performance of Hamilton, earning him $12.7 million by July 2017.[64][65] 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. In May 2016, for his work in the role of Alexander Hamilton, Miranda received the Drama League Distinguished Performance Award.[66]

Miranda performs freestyle rap with President Barack Obama.

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.[67] In April 2016, Miranda and Jeremy McCarter published Hamilton: The Revolution, a book describing Hamilton's journey from conception to Broadway success. It also discusses the sense of cultural revolution that permeates the show.[68]

Miranda gave his last performance in Hamilton on July 9, 2016,[69] but vowed to return to the show.[70] 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.[71]

A documentary about the creation of the show, Hamilton's America, featuring Miranda, premiered at the New York Film Festival on October 1, 2016, and first aired on PBS' Great Performances series on October 21, 2016.[72][73] A taping of the OBT version of Hamilton was released on Disney+ on July 3, 2020.

On January 24, 2016, Miranda performed the offstage cameo role of Loud Hailer in the Broadway production of Les Misérables,[74] fulfilling his childhood dream of being in the show, as it was the first production he ever saw on Broadway.[75]

2019–present: Return to theatre

In January 2019, Miranda reprised the title role in Hamilton for a three-week limited engagement at the Luis A. 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.[76][77] 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.[78] In March that same year he played King Arthur in a benefit concert of Camelot at Lincoln Center opposite Solea Pfeiffer and Jordan Donica.[79]

In 2023, he wrote additional lyrics for the Broadway musical New York, New York.[80]

In August 2023, it was reported that he had begun work on a stage musical adaptation of the novel The Warriors (which was formerly adapted into the 1979 film of the same name).[81] Miranda worked with Eisa Davis on a concept album based on the novel, Warriors, which was released on October 18, 2024.[82]

Film

2012–2014: Early work

Miranda made his feature film debut in the Walt Disney Pictures live-action film The Odd Life of Timothy Green (2012).[83][84]

2015–present: Disney projects

Miranda interviewed with Disney in the winter of 2013. He submitted a six-song demo package to Walt Disney Animation Studios.[85] This began a series of collaborations with the company:

In the Heights (2021)

Main article: In the Heights (film)

On November 7, 2008, Universal Pictures announced that they planned to adapt In the Heights as a feature film for release in 2011.[109] However, the project was canceled in March 2011,[110] reportedly due to the fact Universal was looking for a "bankable Latino star" like Shakira or Jennifer Lopez instead of unknown actors.[111] In January 2012, Miranda stated that the film adaptation was back under discussion;[112] in May 2016, it was announced that Miranda would co-produce the film with Harvey Weinstein and backing from The Weinstein Company.[113] On June 10, 2016, Jon M. Chu came on board to direct the film adaptation of the musical.[114] 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.[115] 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."[116] Miranda also served as producer and acted alongside Anthony Ramos,[117] Corey Hawkins,[118] Leslie Grace,[119] and Jimmy Smits.[120] The film was set for release on June 26, 2020,[121] but was pulled from the schedule due to the COVID-19 pandemic's impact on the film industry.[122] It was released in theaters and temporarily on HBO Max on June 10, 2021.[123]

Vivo (2021)

Miranda stars as the titular character in addition to providing eleven songs and serving as an executive producer for Vivo, a Sony Pictures Animation film directed by Kirk DeMicco which was released on Netflix in August 2021.[124][125][126]

Tick, Tick...Boom! (2021)

Main article: Tick, Tick... Boom! (film)

Imagine Entertainment announced in July 2018 that Miranda would make his debut as a film director with an adaptation of Jonathan Larson's semi-autobiographical musical Tick, Tick... Boom!, to be scripted by Dear Evan Hansen librettist Steven Levenson.[127][128] Miranda produced the film alongside Ron Howard and Brian Grazer:[128] it was released on Netflix in 2021.[129][130]

Upcoming projects

Miranda agreed in 2016 to serve as executive producer and composer of Lionsgate's film adaptation of The Kingkiller Chronicle by Patrick Rothfuss, as well as a tie-in television series.[131][132] In 2022, it was revealed that he was no longer attached to the project.

Television

2007–2013: Early roles

Miranda also worked in television. In 2007, he made a small appearance on the television series The Sopranos in the episode "Remember When",[133] and in 2009, he played Juan "Alvie" Alvarez, Gregory House's roommate in a psychiatric hospital, in the two-hour season six premiere episode of House; he returned to the role in May 2010. For Sesame Street, he occasionally played roles and sang the theme song to the recurring segment Murray Has a Little Lamb.[134] He was a composer and actor on the 2009 revival of The Electric Company[135][136] and appeared in the CollegeHumor sketch "Hardly Working: Rap Battle", playing himself working as an intern and rapper.[137]

He played several television roles during this period. He appeared on the TV series Modern Family in the 2011 episode "Good Cop Bad Dog".[138] In 2013, he played the recurring role of Ruben Marcado in the NBC drama Do No Harm.[139] He later appeared in the CBS sitcom How I Met Your Mother, in an all-verse episode titled "Bedtime Stories" that aired in November 2013.[140]

2016–2021: Comedy roles and other projects

On April 24, 2016, on the TV show Last Week Tonight with John Oliver, at the end of a segment about the debt crisis in Puerto Rico, Miranda performed an emotional rap about allowing the island to restructure its debt.[141] Miranda hosted Saturday Night Live on October 8, 2016, and played himself in two episodes of Curb Your Enthusiasm in 2017, receiving Emmy Award nominations for both appearances.[142] In 2019, Miranda was the guest narrator at Disney's Candlelight Processional at Disneyland.[143]

Miranda performed the theme song for the Netflix original series The Magic School Bus Rides Again, the revival and sequel series of the 1994 series The Magic School Bus. He played the part of Amy's brother (David Santiago) in the episode "The Golden Child" in Brooklyn Nine-Nine. On July 29, 2019, it was announced that Miranda had teamed with TV producer Norman Lear to make an American Masters documentary about the life of Puerto Rican actress Rita Moreno, titled Rita Moreno: Just a Girl Who Decided to Go for It.[144] It premiered at the 2021 Sundance Film Festival. Miranda, in collaboration with Brittany Howard, Daveed Diggs, Kristen Anderson-Lopez, and Robert Lopez, wrote the lyrics for the song "Checks and Balances", which was sung by Benjy Brooke for the 2021 Netflix animated series We the People.[145]

The series won critical acclaim, and Miranda was nominated for the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Limited or Anthology Series as an executive producer.

His Dark Materials (2019)

Main article: His Dark Materials (TV series)

Miranda was cast as Lee Scoresby in the BBC series television adaptation of His Dark Materials (2019).[146] 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".[147]

2019–present

He appears as Hermes, messenger of the gods, in Percy Jackson and the Olympians, which premiered on Disney+ on December 19, 2023.[148]

Personal life

Family

Miranda (right) with his family upon receiving a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2018. Nadal is in the center.

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.[149] At the wedding reception, Miranda, along with the wedding party, performed the Fiddler on the Roof song "To Life".[150][151]

Miranda and Nadal have two sons: Sebastian (b. 2014) and Francisco (b. 2018).[152][153] 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 the live-action version.[154] Sebastian was the first name listed in the production babies credits of Moana, for which Miranda wrote the songs.[155] 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.[156][157][158] Miranda and Residente have since confirmed the relationship.[159][160][161][162] In 2017, Miranda performed on the opening track of Residente's self-titled debut album.[163]

Miranda is also one of the cousins of professional baseball player José Miranda.[164]

Activism

After a meeting with President Barack Obama in March 2016,[165] 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.[166] Miranda was particularly active in the wake of Hurricane Maria's devastation in Puerto Rico,[10][11] 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]
