He was also interested in the education of deaf people, so he invented microphone. Since his death in 1922, the telecommunication industry has undergone an amazing revolution. Today, non-hearing people are able to use a special display telephone to communicate.
"The most successful men in the end are those whose success is the result of steady accretion."
—Alexander Graham Bell
