Alexander Graham Bell

Teacher, scientist and inventor, Bell devoted his life, with unusual success, to the benefit of humankind. Know chiefly as the inventor of the telephone, he also produced important inventions and discoveries in medicine, aeronautics, marine engineering, genetics and electrical science, and greatly advanced the methods and practices of teaching the deaf to communicate. Bell was born in Scotland, was a citizen of the United States and longtime resident of Canada.
The last picture is his office, with a painting of an owl done by his wife who was deaf. He was such a night owl is why she drew this owl picture.
