Biographical Core
Alexander Graham Bell was a Scottish-born inventor, scientist, and teacher of the deaf, best known for patenting the telephone in 1876 after years of experiments in sound transmission. Influenced by his family's work in elocution, he moved to Canada in 1870 and the United States in 1871, where he taught deaf students, including his wife Mabel, and collaborated with Thomas A. Watson on key inventions. Beyond the telephone, Bell refined the phonograph, developed the photophone, pioneered aviation through the Aerial Experiment Association, created medical devices like an electrical bullet probe, and founded organizations promoting speech education for the deaf, leaving a legacy in telecommunications, education, and humanitarian science.
