Best Answer

Thomas Edison

Another AnswerWhile the common belief is that Thomas Edison "invented the light bulb" he actually copied the design from a British inventor Joseph Swan and later formed a company with Swan. Thomas Edison may not have invented the light bulb, however he did improve it and provide the basis for what we know as the light bulb today. Joseph Swan's idea was based on a carbon filament design.
