    Alexander Graham Bell was a Scottish inventor born in 1847 who was passionate about sound from a young age. He experimented with various methods of transmitting sound, inspired by his mother who was deaf. Bell developed a theory that sounds could be transmitted electrically over a single wire. After moving to Canada and continuing his experiments there with deaf students and a piano, he succeeded in inventing the telephone with the help of his assistant Thomas Watson. The telephone changed communication worldwide by making it faster and simpler through this new technology. Bell was recognized for his pivotal invention of the telephone and his curiosity and intelligence in sound transmission.
