— -- Try if you will to keep up with actor, singer, performer Jordan Fisher, but know that it won't be easy. Fresh off of a recent stint with Broadway's "Hamilton," Fisher is looking ahead to next week's Radio Disney Music Awards where he will be hosting the show for the first time.

Before Fisher headed to L.A. for the big event, ABC News toured areas of New York in honor of National Park Week.

Here's a few things to know about Jordan Fisher:

He recently starred in the hottest show on Broadway

Fisher is fresh off of a stint with the Broadway smash hit "Hamilton." He took over the roles of John Laurens and Philip Hamilton last November. During his time with the show, Fisher participated in the Hamilton Education program that gives students an opportunity to see the show and chat with the actors about what they've learned.

Fisher has a new love of history

Perhaps his new love of history stems from his recent Broadway role as a historical character. But now Fisher has a yearning to take a closer look at some of the national treasures. And he's partnered with the U.S. National Park Service (NPS) to remind Americans what they could be missing. Fisher explained why he's chosen to participate in a new campaign with the NPS.

"All of the parks tell a story, a story about the cultivation of our country and how we got to where we are today," Fisher said. "Some of these places are frozen, frozen in time. You can go back and see some of these places the way that they were 200 years ago. It's so cool to see and I think shedding light on the cool factor of that is something that is very important to me."

Some of Fisher's New York stops included Grant's Tomb, the Castle Clinton National Monument and the Hamilton Grange National Memorial.
