Paul Revere (1735–1818)
-
Best known for his “midnight ride” to forewarn the rebels of the British march on Concord, Revere served the American Revolution as organizer, messenger, and propagandist. A gifted silversmith with many pieces in the Museum of Fine Arts (see Museum of Fine Arts), he founded the metalworking firm that gilded the State House dome and sheathed the hull of the USS Constitution.
