Thomas Alva Edison was an American inventor and businessman who developed many devices that greatly
influenced life around the world. He lit up the world with his invention of electric light. Without him, the
world might still be a dark place. However electric light was not his only invention. He also in and over
invented phonograph, motion picture camera, and over 1,200 other things, About every two weeks he
created something new. Thomas A. Edison was born in Milan, Ohio, on February 11,1847. His mother, a
former teacher, taught him a few things, but Thomas was mostly self educated. Surprisingly, he attended
school for only two months. His natural curiosity let him to start experimenting at a young age with
electrical and mechanical things at home.
When he was 12 years old, he got his first job. He became a newsboy on a train that ran between Port
Huron and Detroit. He set up a laboratory in a baggage car of his trainso that he could continue
his
experiments in his spare time. Unfortunately, his first work experiment did not end well. Thomas was fired
when he accidently set fire to the floor of the baggage car.
Thomas then worked for 5 years as a telegraph operator, but he continued to spend much of his time on
the job conducting experiments. He got his first patent in 1868 for a voice recorder run by
electricity. However the voice recorder was not a success. In 1870, he sold another invention, a stock-ticker
for $40,000! A stock-ticker is a machine that automatically prints stock prices on a tape. He was then able
to build his first shop in Newark, New Jersey.​
