Did you know Lewis Howard Latimer worked with two famous inventors? The first famous inventor Lewis worked with was Alexander Graham Bell. As Bell’s assistant, Lewis would play an important role in the creation of the telephone. He used his skills to create the drawings for the patent that Bell submitted in 1876. Later, Latimer also worked with Thomas Edison. He invented something called a carbon filament. This small piece helped make incandescent light bulbs work. Incandescent bulbs glow or give light from being heated. Latimer made it easier to produce the carbon filament so a lot more people could use light bulbs. While Latimer helped out two great inventors, he also had his own inventions, which included an “improved railroad car bathroom and an early air conditioning unit.
