Hamilton, Alexander
Hamilton, Alexander (1755–1804) US statesman. During the American Revolution, he served as George
Washington's aide-de-camp and secretary. Hamilton was the principal contributor to
The Federalist Papers (1788), advocating the new US
Constitution. As first secretary of the treasury (1789–95), he established the national currency and the
Bank of the United States (1791). In 1800, he alienated many within the
Federalist Party by supporting Thomas
Jefferson's bid for the presidency. In 1804, he thwarted Aaron
Burr's campaign for governor of New York. Burr challenged him to a duel and killed him.
