Thomas Edison

Honestly?! Common sense, if light bulbs were not invented then we would still carry candles with us for light plus no one has to go street to street lighting lamps they're all automatic now.

His kid was named Mike Edison.

It is often erroneously believed that Edison invented the light bulb, this is untrue, however he did make improvements to its design.

Thomas Alva Edison's nationality is American.

Despite what a previous answer said, Edison did, in fact, create a novelty talking doll that premiered in 1890. It 'talked' by the delicate turning of a crank in the doll's back, which prompted the internal phonograph to spin and thereby play. The doll was only marketed for a very brief period, however, because the mechanism was too difficult for children to play at the correct speed without it breaking.

Thomas Edison's impact on history is that he was an American inventor, who held over 1,000 patents to his name. He invented the Kinetoscope (movie projector), improved upon the incandescent light bulb, invented the first "tin foil" phonograph in 1877 and invented many other things during his life time that have benefited mankind.
