In 2009 the US Census estimated that there are 830,000 Haitian Americans living in the U.S. During the early 1960s and the 1970s, many Haitians emigrated to the U.S. during the family dictatorships of François "Papa Doc" and Jean-Claude "Baby Doc" Duvalier.
History
During the 18th century, the French colony of Saint-Domingue was the richest in the Caribbean, due to its massive production of sugar cane. This wealth was concentrated in the hands of a small minority of planters, who used slave labor of Sub-Saharan African origin to harvest their crops. Beginning in 1791, slaves (who formed about 90 percent of the population) revolted against their masters and succeeded in forcing France to abolish slavery.
This is a list of notable Haitian Americans, including both original immigrants who obtained American citizenship and their American descendants.
To be included in this list, the person must have a Wikipedia article showing they are Haitian American or must have references showing they are Haitian American and are notable.

Sacha Thébaud aka "Tebó", artist, sculptor, architect, furniture designer born in Haiti and known for encaustics in international contemporary fine art; 1934-2004
Americans are citizens of the United States of America. The country is home to people of many different national origins. As a result, most Americans do not equate their nationality with ethnicity, but with citizenship and allegiance. Although citizens make up the majority of Americans, non-citizen residents, dual citizens, and expatriates may also claim an American identity.
Despite its multi-ethnic composition, the culture of the United States held in common by most Americans can also be referred to as mainstreamAmerican culture, a Western culture largely derived from the traditions of Northern and Western European colonists, settlers, and immigrants. It also includes influences of African-American culture. Westward expansion integrated the Creoles and Cajuns of Louisiana and the Hispanos of the Southwest and brought close contact with the culture of Mexico. Large-scale immigration in the late 19th and early 20th centuries from Southern and Eastern Europe introduced a variety of elements. Immigration from Asia, Africa, and Latin America has also had impact. A cultural melting pot, or pluralistic salad bowl, describes the way in which generations of Americans have celebrated and exchanged distinctive cultural characteristics.
