Meet Antuan Raimone

Hamilton Actor, Author, & Speaker

With a captivating smile and unmistakable presence, Antuan Raimone commands the stage within moments. A Black gay man raised in a suburban Midwestern town, he grew up navigating spaces where he was often the only one. What once felt isolating became the foundation of his strength—shaping a global voice rooted in authenticity, resilience, and self-acceptance.

Now based in New York City, Antuan is an Advocate, Author, TEDx Speaker, and accomplished Actor. As a survivor of childhood sexual abuse, he uses his lived experience to empower others to reclaim their stories and their power. He served on the NYC Office of Victim Services Advisory Council and was selected as a plenary speaker for its statewide conference. His keynote addresses and speaking engagements include the University of Virginia, the SPECTRUM Conference, the United States Merchant Marine Academy, and the Men’s Sexual Assault Summit.

Antuan is the author of Becoming Magic: A Path of Personal Reconstruction. Affectionately known as “Magic,” he embraces his mission as a Soldier of Love—encouraging audiences to live a whole life. A life where mistakes can exist, where fear is not debilitating and where vulnerability is not a weakness.

With more than two decades as a professional Actor, Antuan has performed as the first male Universal Swing in the 11-time Tony, Pulitzer Prize, and Grammy Award–winning Hamilton, appeared in the four-time Tony Award–winning In the Heights, and spent six seasons with the Radio City Christmas Spectacular. Whether on stage or behind a podium, Antuan’s work lives at the intersection of artistry, advocacy, and transformation.
