Robert Morris | Financier of the Revolution | Born January 20, 1734

Robert Morris, a Philadelphia merchant born in England, used his extraordinary financial talents to support the Revolutionary cause. One of the wealthiest men in America, he not only signed the Declaration, but also the Articles of Confederation and the Constitution, a rare trifecta shared with few others.

Called the “Financier of the Revolution” for the vital role he played in securing supplies, credit, and financial stability for the fledgling United States.
