Philo Fransworth
Philo was born on August 19th 1906. He invented the television. He came up with the idea when he was just a teenager. One day he was plowing a potato field making rows in straight lines and that's when he got the idea that images could be in a straight line also and didn't have to be broken up. That's how he came up with images that were scanned electronically in a camera tube. Those tubes were used in tvs for a long time. Everyone loves TV so it was a big HIT!
