Probably not as famous to most of you as to myself, this is my grandmother. She is credited as the first American nurse to land in Normandy after D-Day. This print appears in the Women of American Wars exhibit outside the entrance to Arlington National Cemetery.

Edison is not the greatest inventor of all time. He is just a Tesla wannabee. Edison was a great self-promoter to be sure and good at stealing ideas from bright young underlings.
