Answer:

Eli Whitney, (born December 8, 1765, Westboro, Massachusetts [U.S.]—died January 8, 1825, New Haven, Connecticut, U.S.), American inventor, mechanical engineer, and manufacturer, best remembered as the inventor of the cotton gin but most important for developing the concept of mass production of interchangeable parts.

Whitney’s father was a respected farmer who served as a justice of the peace. In May 1789 Whitney entered Yale College, where he learned many of the new concepts and experiments in science and the applied arts, as technology was then called. After graduation in the fall of 1792, Whitney was disappointed twice in promised teaching posts. The second offer was in Georgia, where, stranded without employment, short of cash, and far from home, he was befriended by Catherine Greene. Phineas Miller, a young man of Whitney’s age, Connecticut-born and Yale-educated, managed Mulberry Grove, Greene’s plantation. Miller and Whitney became friends.
