About William Lee
William Lee was an enslaved American man and personal assistant of George Washington. He was the only one of Washington's slaves who was freed immediately by Washington's will. With his service by Washington's side throughout the American Revolutionary War and occasional depiction next to Washington in paintings, Lee was one of the most publicized African Americans of his time.
