Philo Taylor Farnsworth

Philo Taylor Farnsworth invented the Television system. Over 302 of his inventions were patented, but all the many more of them weren't. He joined Crocker Research Laboratories in San Francisco (1926).Which was later renamed Farnsworth Television inc., in (may of 1929). After he died he had so many U.S. and foregn patents that he was honored in september of 1983 by the U.S. Postal Service with a special edition stamp with his portrait on it.

Philo Taylor Farnsworth is my hero because without him entertainment would barely exist and news and weather would have to be listened to on a radio.
