Alexander Graham Bell, inventor of the telephone, was born in 1847 in Scotland in Edinburgh. Although his formal education lasted only a few years, he received a good education from his family members and engaged in self-education. Interest in voice playback sounds born in Bella is not accidental, because his father was an expert in the physiology of the voice, speech and remedial education of deaf people. In 1871, Bell moved to Boston, Massachusetts. In 1875, he himself made a series of discoveries that led to the invention of the telephone. In 1876, Bell filled patent application for his invention, and it was given to him a few weeks later. (It is interesting to notice that the other person, Elisha Gray, filled the patent application for a similar device on the same day as the Bell, but only for an hour later.)
Soon after he was granted a patent, Bell put the phone on the Centennial Exhibition in Philadelphia. The invention has caused great interest among the public and won an award. Nevertheless, "the Western Union Telegraph Company," which were offered the rights to an invention for a hundred thousand dollars, refused to buy them. However, Bell and his associates organized the company in July 1877, the predecessor of the modern "American Telephone and Telegraph Company." Telephone waited fast - and huge! - A commercial success, and ATT eventually became the largest private corporation in the world. (Since then, it was divided into several small companies.) Bell and his wife, who in March 1879 had a fifteen percent stake in the company, visited the idea of how to make your company a fantastically profitable. For seven months they sold most of its shares at an average price of $ 250 apiece. By November, the shares have been sold for a thousand! (Prior to that, in March, when the shares were sold at sixty-five dollars, his wife Bella begged her husband to sell everything immediately, because she was afraid that their rate never rises!) In 1881, they sold the unreasonable one-third of the remaining shares they hold. Nevertheless, by 1883 they had a state about a million dollars. While the invention has made Bell's richest man, he continued his studies and successfully invented several other useful (though less significant) devices. His interests were very diverse, but the main purpose of it is always considered helping deaf people. Bell's wife was actually deaf, and he used to give her lessons. They had two sons and two daughters, but the two boys died in infancy. In 1882, Bell became a United States citizen. He died in 1922.
