Alexander Hamilton [January 11, 1755-July 12, 1804] brought considerable economical, legal and statistical skills to his position as the first Secretary of the Treasury [September 11, 1789-January 31, 1795]. He also had a solid background in political philosophy and politico-economic theory. All of these talents were brought to bear in his writing of The Federalist Papers. The work had a considerable impact during his day, and even now is considered a prime source for interpretations of the U.S. Constitution, and of Constitutionality. And yet, in his day, Hamilton published the Papers anonymously, under the name Publius.
