This post is dedicated to one of the most talented members of the Hamilton cast,
Daveed Diggs. Diggs' journey to starring in one of the hottest Broadway
musicals of all time is definitely an interesting one. He was born in
Oakland, California where he would attend Berkeley High School. After
graduation, Diggs went on to be recruited by Brown University for his
track skills. However, he would end up graduating with a degree in
theater. Diggs began showing his passion for hip-hop and rap with
various performances and groups. A current improv rap group he is a part
of is "Clipping" for which he is MC. It was in one of these groups
(Freestyle Love Supreme) where Diggs would meet Lin-Manuel Miranda. Hamilton would
become Diggs' Broadway debut, where he currently blows audiences away.
If you would like to know more about about Daveed Diggs, check out the
video of an interview he recently had. "Everyone give it up for
America's favorite fighting Frenchman!"
