Sam Grant as General Ulysses S. Grant
Since 1989, Sam Grant has dedicated his life to understanding Ulysses S. Grant, one of the greatest leaders this
nation has ever known. After
years of study and experienceand portraying the part of General Grant, his professional interpretation of the
General’s physical stature and character have
won him the intellectual admiration and heartfelt appreciation of the
most serious
students of Civil War history and novice spectators alike.
In Sam’s own words,
“If that’s what I look like, and that's what I know,
then that’s why I’m
here, to teach people
about
the Greatest Average American that ever lived.”

“The Real Thing”
“
Working with
Sam as I have for over a dozen years now ,
I can say only one thing: Sam is
Grant! In addition to his extensive and intimate knowledge
of the subject, his physical portrayal is remarkable.
I must tell you of the countless times when we will just
be riding down a crowd line, and many of the public will
spontaneously greet ‘General Grant’. I once invited a client to attend an event that was
held in Hamilton, NJ. When
he got to my tent upon arrival, the client was already in awe of
the details and the overall environment that we recreate.
Just then, Sam rode up on his horse, just over the hill.
My client's jaw dropped as he looked back at me.
‘That's General Grant,’ he exclaimed.
I replied simply, ‘Yes, it is.’”
