A collaboration of scientists (headed by Robert Oppenheimer) and engineers designed and built the first atomic bomb. It could not have been handled by one person, or even a "small team" of clever, skilled individuals.
The research and development was handled under the auspices of the Manhattan Project, which was a massive effort by the United States in World War 2. Nuclear theory had suggested that the release of vast amounts of energy was possible under certain conditions with the right materials. The whole idea was to apply the ideas of what might be possible to construct a working nuclear weapon.
Below is a link to the Wikipedia post on the Manhattan Project. All the particulars can be found there.

Did Albert Einstein become influenced by World War 2?
It was the other way around. Albert Einstein and another physicist influenced World War 2 when he wrote a letter to President Roosevelt telling him that the Germans were starting on an atom bomb. He suggested the US get an atom bomb made to stop the German Nazis. Roosevelt and his committee chose to follow Einstein's advice and the Manhattan Project was created as well as three atom bombs. However, Einstein disliked the thought of nuclear bombs being made and used. He knew the devastation it would cause. He also was leary of Humans using nuclear physics to create anything.
