Edison, Thomas Alva (1847-1931), was an American inventor, scientist, and businessman, famously known for his invention of the phonograph and the motion picture camera, and for the creation of such companies as General Electric. Holding over 1,000 patents, he is considered one of the most prolific inventors in history.
Thomas Edison was born in Milan, Ohio, on February 11, 1847, to father Samuel Ogden Edison, Jr. and mother Nancy Matthews Elliott. He was their seventh and last child, with brothers William Pitt, Carlisle, and Samuel Ogden, and sisters, Marion Wallace, Eliza, and Harriett Ann.
Edison became a telegraph operator and relocated to Stratford Junction, Ontario. When he turned 19 years old, Edison moved to Louisville, Kentucky, where he worked for Western Union. Working as a telegraph operator is what ultimately introduced Edison to technology and electricity and this can be seen as paramount event that began his life long invention of new technologies.
