Thomas Alva Edison is one of America's most famous inventors.
Edison saw huge change take place in his lifetime. He was responsible
for making many of those changes occur.
His inventions created and
contributed to modern night lights, movies, telephones, records and
CDs.
Edison was truly a genius.
Edison is most famous for his development of the first electric
light bulb.
When Edison was born, electricity had not been developed.
By the time he died, entire cities were lit by electricity.
Much of the
credit for electricity goes to Edison.
Some of his inventions were improvements on other inventions,
like the telephone.
Some of his inventions he deliberately tried to
invent, like the light bulb and the movie projector.
But some
inventions he stumbled upon, like the phonograph. Of all his
inventions, Edison was most proud of the phonograph.
Edison invented and improved upon things that transformed
our world. Some things he invented by himself.
Some things he
invented with other people.
Just about all his inventions are things we
still use in some form today.
Throughout his life, Edison tried to
invent things that everyone could use.
Edison created the world's first "invention factory".
He and his
partners invented, built and shipped the product - all in the same
complex.
This was a new way to do business.
Today many businesses
have copied Edison's invention factory design.
A business friend once asked Edison about the secret to his success.
Edison replied, "Genius is hard work, stick-to-itiveness, and common
sense".
But his "common sense" was very uncommon.
More patents
were issued to Edison than have been issued to any other single
person in U.S. history: 1,093.
