Meet the greatest entertainer of the 19th Century…

In 1834, desperate to create a better life for his family, small-time Connecticut businessman P. T. Barnum moved to New York City.

Barnum creates an aura of excitement about himself and his enduring fame, confirming his reputation as the greatest impresario of all time and revealing the controversial decisions that helped him to his fortune.

As a result, he wound up the most influential progenitor of much that is spectacular, vulgar, cheerfully phony and just plain fun about American popular culture’ The Times
