Who's Your Favorite Founding Father?
National Constitution Center
1 hr 3 min 19 sec - Feb 17, 2005
Who is our nation's foremost Founder? Does George Washington
trump Alexander Hamilton, or does Benjamin Franklin take all?
Find out as three of the nation's top biographers--Joseph Ellis,
Walter Isaacson and Richard Brookhiser--square off in a panel
discussion, "Who's Your Favorite Founding Father?"
Joseph Ellis is widely praised for his ability to bring fresh insight
to the well-known lives of the leaders of the American Revolution.
Walter Isaacson presents Philadelphia's own Founding Father,
Ben Franklin, as an exemplary diplomat, strategist and even media
mogul. Isaacson coins Franklin the "Founding Father who winks at
us and seems made of flesh rather than of marble."
Richard Brookhiser's series of biographies about our nation's
founders revolutionized the art of biography.
Located on Philadelphia's historic Independence Mall, the National
Constitution Center is an independent, nonpartisan, nonprofit
organization dedicated to increasing public understanding of the
U.S. Constitution and its relevance to Americans' daily lives. For more
information, call 215.409.6600 or visit www.constitutioncenter.org.
