Lin-Manuel Miranda Named AP Entertainer of the Year

Well deserved.

The Associated Press has named Hamilton writer-composer Lin-Manuel Miranda its entertainer of the year.

As the AP notes, 2016 was quite a year for Miranda. He won a Pulitzer, several Tonys and wasn’t done there:

The Hamilton writer-composer picked up those honors and also earned a Golden Globe nomination, won the Edward M. Kennedy Prize for Drama Inspired by American History, wrote music for a top movie, and inspired a best-selling book, a best-selling album of Hamilton covers and a popular PBS documentary.
