Do you know who invented E= mc2? Well it’s Albert Einstein! He’s one of the world's most famous Scientists. He also has invented many things. He plays the violin, is a mathematician and a scientist! I am going to tell you about him in this biography!

Albert Einstein was born on March 14, 1879 in Ulm, Germany. He had a sister named Maya and two children Hans and Eduard Einstein. His mom was a Piano player and his father was a doctor. Did you know that his first words were “ The soup is too hot”? His first school was at Catholic Elementary School. Albert was smart but people didn’t think he was smart. Albert was rich when he was small, but then as an adult he got poor. He quit college in Germany in his first year. Then he went to Switzerland and got a doctors degree. Married Milva in 1903, and got divorced in 1913. Married his cousin Elsa in 1919. Sadly he died in 1955.

Albert Einstein invented an equation E=mc2. It means energy equals to mass times the speed of light squared. He did that by working very hard. He didn’t just sit there and wait for someone else to do it! Albert also wrote a letter to Franklin D. Roosevelt that told about what the Germans were up to. They were making an atomic bomb, which would destroy the USA! Good thing he told them because the USA built it faster and won the war!

I picked Albert because he was a vary important person to the world. Without E=mc2 scientists wouldn’t be able to invent spaceships or formulas. I also picked Albert because I’ve always wanted to know about his life! I picked Albert because I wanted to know how it is to be a scientist. That’s why I picked Albert Einstein.

Albert is a hero because he never gave up when he did something wrong. He is also a hero because of him we won World War 2! Albert's a hero because he studied the universe and had gotten to find out new things. To me he is the best scientist ever seen or born on the planet of earth!
