Thomas Alva Edison, geboren am 11. Februar 1847 in Milan, Ohio, USA, und verstorben am 18. Oktober 1931 in West Orange, New Jersey, USA war ein US-amerikanischer Erfinder, Elektroingenieur und Unternehmer mit dem Schwerpunkt auf dem Gebiet der Elektrizität und Elektrotechnik.
Seine Verdienste gründen in erster Linie auf der Marktfähigkeit seiner Erfindungen, die er zu einem System von Stromerzeugung, Stromverteilung und innovativen elektrischen Konsumprodukten verbinden konnte. Edisons grundlegende Erfindungen und Entwicklungen in den Bereichen elektrisches Licht, Telekommunikation sowie Medien für Ton (insbesondere 1877 der Phonograph) und Bild hatten einen großen Einfluss auf die allgemeine technische und kulturelle Entwicklung. In späteren Jahren gelangen ihm wichtige Entwicklungen der Verfahrenstechnik für die Bereiche Chemie und Zement. Seine Organisation der industriellen Forschung prägte die Entwicklungsarbeit späterer Unternehmen.
Die Leistungen von Edison bei der Elektrifizierung New Yorks und der Einführung des elektrischen Lichts markieren den Beginn der umfassenden Elektrifizierung der industrialisierten Welt. Diese epochale Veränderung ist insbesondere mit seinem Namen verbunden.

An 1881 photograph of the The Edison Machine Works, formerly the Etna Iron Works, located on Goerck Street, Manhattan by Edison employee Charles L. Clarke. The Edison Machine Works was a manufacturing company set up to produce dynamos, large electric motors, and other components of the electrical illumination system being built by Thomas A. Edison in New York City in the 1880s. This section of Manhattans Lower East Side was cleared in the 1950s to make way for the large Baruch Houses project so the building and Goerck Street itself no longer exists.
