Albert Einstein
Albert Einstein was born in Germany. Einstein is well known throughout the world. He is famous for his theory of relativity. Einstein had a huge influence on the philosophy of science.
Albert Einstein was born March 14, 1879 in Ulm, Germany. Albert was the first child of the Jewish couple Hermann and Pauline Einstein. When Albert was one his family moved to Munich where his father and uncle, Jakob founded an electrical engineering company named Einstein & Cie. Albert became a big brother to his new sister, Maria, nicknamed Maja on November 18, 1881. Albert did not learn to speak until a late age. Albert started receiving a private education to prepare for school in 1884. He learned to play the violin the next year at the

After that he moved to the capital of Switzerland, Bern. In order to make a living, Einstein gave private lessons in mathematics and physics. During this time, Einstein along with Maurice Solovine and Conrad Habicht founded the “Akademie Olympia” or in English, Olympia Academy. This was a group of friends in Bern, Switzerland that met at Albert Einstein's apartment to discuss philosophy and physics. Einstein wrote that this was beneficial to his career.
In December of 1901, Albert Einstein applied for a position at the Bernese Patent Office. He received the job. Starting on June 23, 1902, Einstein became a technical expert, third class, in the office he worked in. Although he had a considerable workload, Einstein still found time for his further research in theoretical physics.
In January of 1902 the daughter of Einstein and Mileva Marić was born. Mileva was a former student of Einstein’s and the second woman to finish a full program at the Department of Mathematics and Physics. It wasn’t learned until a few years ago that Einstein and Mileva even had a daughter together. It was discovered through Einstein’s private letters. It is believed that the daughter was given up for adoption, but no one knows for sure. On January sixth of the next year, Einstein married Mileva. Mileva’s parents accepted the relationship, but Einstein’s parents despised

In the years of 1921 through 1923, Albert travelled with others to the US, Britain, France, Japan and Palestine. In 1922 Einstein joined the League of Nations' International Committee on Intellectual Cooperation, though he later left still supporting. In 1928, Einstein was diagnosed with a heart disease due to stress which took him over a year to recover from. Einstein was working on a unified field theory including gravitation and electrodynamics to concern with quantum mechanics from 1920 onwards. During his work he was supported by colleagues including Niels Bohr, Werner Heisenberg, and Wolfgang Pauli among others. However, this theory is used in physics not quantum mechanics
Edward Lowe was born in Saint Paul Minnesota in July 10th 1920 Lowe was a man of many things. Even Lowe lived a normal live prior to his big success. Most lives are lived going to local school and graduating high school, getting a job to provide for your family and live in average life. Lowe served and the US Navy during World War one. Edward Lowe where attended high school at Ross Beatty Junior Senior High School.
In his early childhood Elie was born September 30, 1928, in Sighet, to an Orthodox Jewish family. His parents, Shlomo and Sarah, owned a grocery store in the village where they lived. He had three sisters, Hilda, Bea, and Tsiporah. When he was three years old, Wiesel began attending a Jewish school
Upton Sinclair was an only child born on September 20, 1878. He was born and raised in Baltimore, Maryland. Even though his name was respected in the South from his great-grandfathers fame in the War of 1812, Upton Sinclair grew up in a family without much money. Any profit his father made was spent on alcohol. Living in poverty, the family moved often, unable to pay rent.
Hilda Wiesel was the oldest, then Beatrice “Bea”, Elie was the third and only son, and Tzipora was the youngest. Hilda Wiesel was reunited with Elie after the Holocaust. Bea was also reunited and died in 1974. Hilda and Bea were reunited with Elie in a French orphanage. Elie’s photo was taken by a journalist who came to visit at the orphanage.
Jane Addams life as a child was not easy, she had a congenital spinal defect which led to her never being physically strong and her father who served for sixteen years as a state senator and fought as an officer in the Civil War always showed that his thoughts of women were that they were weak, and especially her with her condition. But besides that she lived a very privileged life since her father had many famous friends like the president Abraham Lincoln. Jane was determined to get a good education which she ended up getting. She went to Rockford sanitary for women which is now called Rockford University and she also studied to be a doctor but had to quit because she was hospitalised too many times. Being sick affected her life very much so when she got older she remedied her spinal defect with surgery.
Eliezer “Elie” Wiesel was born on September 30, 1928 in Sighet, Romania. He lived with his parents Shlomo and Sarah Wiesel and his three sisters Tzipora, Beatrice, and Hilda. Before, Elie and his family were taken to a concentration camp, he did his religious Judaism studies at a yeshiva. In May 1994 when Elie was only 15 years old his family was taken to Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp in Poland. Elie and his father were sent Buna Werke, a labor camp that was apart of Auschwitz were he and his father worked in horrible conditions.
Elvis Presley was not a remarkable singer when he started out. For many years, he worked diligently with his work to try to get his music heard by other people. His success finally came when people gave him a chance. Elvis later received a slew of awards for his musical works. Although most people see Elvis Presley as only a great singer, Elvis created a style of music that led to the music we have today.
In 1922, he met his wife Gladys, and together they had a daughter, Iva.
Albert Einstein changed America with his many scientific discoveries. Born in Ulm, Germany in 1879, Einstein immigrated to America in 1933. He is most known for his theory of relativity, which “proposed a revolutionary conception of the physical world, suggesting that time, mass, and length were not fixed absolutes, but dependent on the motion of the observer” (How I See the World).
Igor Stravinsky was born in Russia on the 17th of June 1882. In Oranienbaum, a suburb of St Petersburg. He lives in a family of to his father was a musician.

Just mention of his name invokes battery of negative thoughts and emotions of him being an evil person who killed millions of innocent people.
Thomas Edison is an American inventor and businessman, who has been described as “America’s greatest inventor.” His tireless work efforts and dedication to science not only helped him to create inventions that have advanced technology , but also become an inspirational figure for Americans. His improvements and inventions on objects that were already invented helped the lives of over millions of Americans. He helped to build America’s economy during some of its more vulnerable years as a new nation. Thomas Edison’s inventions have helped to advance our society though his dedications and knowledge in mechanical, electrical, and chemical sciences.
As postulated by Max Planck (1858–1947), the quantum theory “was the most fundamental innovation in physical science in the first half of the twentieth century, because of the establishment of a new system of physics and the construction of a philosophical worldview that appeared to deny the possibility of a complete understanding of reality” (“Quantum mechanics”,2005). In fact, the quantum theory is a probabilistic act; the act of finding a small particle in the whole universe. In other words, the theory deals with a particle as if it is present anywhere in the universe, but once it is observed, it is found. This theory was attacked as false in 1935 by Albert Einstein (1879-1955) as he said that “the theory offers a lot, but it hardly brings us any closer to the God’s secret.
Albert Einstein by Karin Ireland tells the story of Albert Einstein’s life. Albert Einstein was an incredibly smart scientist who was born in Germany. He made many observations including finding a flaw in one of Isaac Newton’s laws, a law about gravity pulling on things without mass. After many years of hard work and negativity directed at him, he finally became successful and famous for all his findings and intelligence. Albert Einstein was a very successful man for being inquisitive, intelligent, and devoted.
