In 1906, while looking for a job at a newspaper office, 15-year-old David Sarnoff walked into a telegraph company by accident, thereby entering the world of electronic communication; he would later head and build the Radio Corp. ... Twenty years later, Philo Farnsworth, a brilliant, hardscrabble college dropout just out of his teens, received the patent for the first all-electronic TV system but was driven to a nervous breakdown by RCAs relentless legal challenges. ... Farnsworth revolutionized the way we communicate, the way we see the world, even the way we live. In 1928, at the age of 22, Farnsworth invented a little thing called television.
