Alexander Graham Bell Edinburgh, Scotland; March 1847 Alexander Graham Bell is most well known for inventing the telephone. He came to the U.S as a teacher of the deaf, and conceived the idea of electronic speech while visiting his hearing-impaired mother in Canada.
1 He invented the telephone because he is an inventor and he wanted to find a way how to communicate with other people apart from talking to them face-to-face. 2  Bell originally started looking into the telephone as a way to speak to the spirit world.
