[148]
[149]
Miranda and Nadal have two sons: Sebastian (b. 2014) and Francisco (b. 2018).
[150]
[151] His son Sebastian was named after the
Jamaican crab from
The Little Mermaid , one of his favorite films, the reason for which he took the job of composing the music for
live-action version.
[152] Sebastian was the first name listed in the
production babies credits of
Moana , for which Miranda wrote the songs.
[153]
Miranda's son Francisco is listed as a production baby in the credits for Vivo .
Miranda discovered that he is related to artists
Residente and
iLe of
Calle 13 during a 2009 concert by the group in San Juan, Puerto Rico, where Miranda was invited to perform. Backstage, the mother of Residente and ILE revealed their connection to
Gilberto Concepción de Gracia , founder of the
Puerto Rican Independence Party .
[154]
[155]
[156] Miranda and Residente have since confirmed the relationship.
[157]
[158]
[159]
[160] In 2017, Miranda performed on the opening track of
Residente's self-titled debut album .
[161]
Miranda is a cousin of professional baseball player
José Miranda .
[162]
Activism
After a meeting with President Barack Obama in March 2016,
[163] Miranda joined U.S. Senators
Kirsten Gillibrand ,
Chuck Schumer ,
Elizabeth Warren , and other Democratic lawmakers to call for congressional action to back a Senate bill in Washington that would allow Puerto Rico to declare bankruptcy and significantly ease its $70 billion
government-debt burden .
[164] Miranda was particularly active in the wake of
Hurricane Maria 's devastation in Puerto Rico,
[10]
[11] and by December 2017, proceeds from his song "
Almost Like Praying " helped the
Hispanic Federation raise $22 million for rescue efforts and disaster relief.
[165]
[166]
Miranda uses proceeds from Hamilton to support
Graham Windham , a nonprofit adoption agency founded by
Elizabeth Schuyler Hamilton .
[167] Miranda performs at their fundraising gala benefits in New York City and helps to fundraise for children in foster care.
[168]
He performed "
Found/Tonight " with
Ben Platt at the
March for Our Lives anti-gun violence rally in Washington, D.C., on March 24, 2018.
[169]
[170]
In order to raise money for Puerto Rico's reconstruction after being struck by hurricanes
Irma and
María , including at least $15 million to be channeled through the Flamboyán Foundation, Lin-Manuel decided to take, and once again play the protagonist role in Hamilton to his father's native Puerto Rico. The Miranda family donated approximately $1 million to bring the
University of Puerto Rico theater up to par in order to use it as the venue for the musical's performance in January 2018. After tickets sold out in two hours for the three-week run, producers decided to move out of the university venue due to warnings of potential disruptions by a university workers' labor organization, and move the already-installed set to the
Luis A. Ferré Performing Arts Center in
Santurce , where the performances ran from January 11 to January 27. The production donated additional hundreds of thousands of dollars in improvements to the Ferré Performing Arts Center.
[171]
In 2016, Miranda advocated for the passing of the
Puerto Rico Oversight, Management, and Economic Stability Act (PROMESA), a law setting out to restructure the debt of Puerto Rico following Hurricane Maria.
[172] The law led to budget cuts resulting in the closure of over 200 public schools, cuts to government labor benefits, and budget cuts at the
University of Puerto Rico (UPR). It was met with protests, with UPR shutting down due to student strikes over the measures in 2017. Miranda became a target of criticism, especially when he performed Hamilton in Puerto Rico, given his lobbying on the bill as well as the musical's subject matter of the United States which many Puerto Ricans see as an oppressor of the island.
[173] During the post show, Miranda met with protestors explaining that he had seen PROMESA as the only bipartisan option for the debt crisis previously, he does not support the austerity measures introduced and that he believes full debt-relief should now be pursued.
[174] Subsequently, he has argued for full debt-relief for the island
[175] and noted that the 2016 act has not led to the promised relief.
[176]

Pulitzer Prize , five
Grammys , three
Tony Awards , two

[180] In December 2018, he received the

[182] In 2019,
