2. Louis Pasteur (1822 - 1895) Louis Pasteur's process of pasteurization continues to preserve beer, wine, milk and all sorts of other stuff. For that (and his work on vaccines), we love him.
3. Alexander Graham Bell (1847 - 1922)
Communication was in Alexander Graham Bell's blood. Sure, he patented the telephone, but he also did a ton of research of hearing loss.
4. Thomas Edison (1847 - 1931)
Let there be light ... sound and movies! As the inventor of the light club, carbon microphone, phonograph and Kinetoscope, Thomas Edison pushed America into the electrical and industrial age.
5. Nikola Tesla (1856 - 1943)
Edison was less than electrified by Nikola Tesla, the inventor who made alternating-current electric power possible. We like him though, and his cool coil, too.
6. Henry Ford (1863 - 1947)
OK, Mr. Model T wasn't the first to manufacture vehicles, but Henry Ford did create vehicle mass production through the assembly line, which decreased production costs and time. Beep, beep!
7. George Washington Carver (1864 - 1943)
Is there an inventor out there who knows more about agriculture and the U. S. South than George Washington Carve, the Father of Biochemical Engineering? We don't think so.
8. Grace Hopper (1906 - 1992)
Grace Hopper was into computers long before any of us were, helping to build UNIVAC and invent the first compiler. She even came up with term "bug" after a moth ran amuck in her computer.
