Alexander Graham Bell was born in Edinburgh, Scotland on March 3, 1847 and died on August 2, 1922 in Nova Scotia, Canada.
Besides being an inventor of the telephone, Bell also has many other discoveries such as photographs, gramophones, and metal detectors.
Bell is a vocal teacher and helps deaf children to speak, so that it becomes an inspiration in his discovery of the telephone.
Bell was initially interested in anatomy and physiology and was considered a surgeon because of his ability to handle hospitals during the American civil war.
Bell married Mabel Gardiner Hubbard in 1877, who was a deaf and child of one of the main investors in the Bell telephone company.
Bell has two children who are born blind, but he managed to find a way to teach them to talk and get the same education as other children.
Bell is a member of the founder of the National Geographic Society and serves as president from 1896 to 1904.
He also has an interest in aeronautics and cooperates with Glenn Curtiss to develop aircraft.
Bell is famous for its quotes when one door closes, another opens; But we look so long and so regretful upon the closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened for us (when one door is closed, the other door opens; but we often see too long on the closed door so we don't see the door open to us).
Bell is recognized as one of the most influential inventors in history and is an influence on many scientists and inventors afterwards.
