EDISON – AMERICA’S MOST FAMOUS INVENTOR

Thomas Edison was born on February 11 th , 1847 in Milan, Ohio. When he was at school, his teacher

considered him to be a slow student. Because of hearing problems, Edison had difficulty following the

lessons. But with only three months of formal education he became one of the greatest inventors and

industrial leaders in history.

Edison’s most famous invention was the electric light bulb. He also invented the phonograph, and

made improvements to the telegraph, telephone and motion picture technology.

Edison had a special life. He married twice with five children. He loved books, had excellent

memory, and always showed curiosity about science. Although he had hearing problems, he refused to

have an operation for his deafness. He said that silence helped him concentrate. He always worked very

hard and often had only four hours of sleep every day. He used to say, “Genius was 1 percent inspiration

and 99 percent perspiration”. When he died on October 18 th , 1931, he was still working on new ideas.
