Thomas Edison was born on February 11, 1847 in Milan, Ohio. He struggled at school but learned
to love reading and conducting experiments from his mother at home. At age 15, Edison became a
"tramp telegrapher." Edison began working on the telegraph and invented a version that could send four
messages at once. He started his famous laboratory at Menlo Park, New Jersey. In 1877, Edison
invented the phonograph. The phonograph was a machine that recorded and played back sounds. In
1878, Edison invented the light bulb as well as the power grid system, which could generate electricity
and deliver it to homes through a network of wires. He subsequently started the Edison Electric Light
Company in October of 1878. Edison continued to invent and make significant contributions to X-ray
technology, storage batteries and motion pictures. Edison worked until his death on October 18, 1931.
