Comparative Of Two Famous Person

     Two of the famous person that I want to introduce are Thomas Edison and Steve Jobs.
     First of all,I would like to talk about Mr.Thomas Edison.Thomas Alva Edison(February 11, 1847 – October 18, 1931) was an American inventor and businessman.He developed many devices that greatly influenced life around the world, including the phonograph, the motion picture camera, and a long-lasting, practical electric light bulb. Dubbed "The Wizard of Menlo Park, he was one of the first inventors to apply the principles of mass production and large-scale teamwork to the process of invention, and because of that, he is often credited with the creation of the first industrial research laboratory. Edison is the fourth most prolific inventor in history, holding 1,093 US patents in his name, as well as many patents in the United Kingdom, France, and Germany.His advanced work in these fields was an outgrowth of his early career as a telegraph operator. Edison developed a system of electric-power generation and distribution to homes, businesses, and factories – a crucial development in the modern industrialized world. His first power station was on Pearl Street in Manhattan, New York.
     Another popular person is Steve Jobs.Steven Paul ''Steve'' Jobs (February 24, 1955 – October 5, 2011) was an American entrepreneur and inventor,best known as the co-founder, chairman, and CEO of Apple Inc. Through Apple, he was widely recognized as a charismatic pioneer of the personal computer revolution and for his influential career in the computer and consumer electronics fields, transforming "one industry after another, from computers and smartphones to music and movies..." Jobs also co-founded and served as chief executive of Pixar Animation Studios; he became a member of the board of directors of The Walt Disney Company in 2006, when Disney acquired Pixar. Jobs was among the first to see the commercial potential of Xerox PARC's mouse-driven graphical user interface, which led to the creation of the Apple Lisa and, one year later, the Macintosh. He also played a role in introducing the Laser Writer, one of the first widely available laser printers, to the market.Jobs received a number of honors and public recognition for his influence in the technology and music industries. He has been referred to as "legendary", a "futurist" or simply "visionary" and has been described as the "Father of the Digital Revolution", a "master of innovation", "the master evangelist of the digital age" and a "design perfectionist"
     Both of them had work hard to us.They try their best to achieve an excellent result to create light bulb and smartphone.They good on imagination and were a brainy person.They never give up with their failure,because they knew that failure is the mother of success.
