Wireless communication, the internet, and television all came from one person - and it wasn't an electrical engineer, a scientist or even a mathematician. He was Alan Arnold Beck who first managed to transmit the human voice by radio waves in 1894.   Image source:  https://www.amazon.com/ A year later he transmitted moving images. Although his experiments were primitive their success was an important milestone on the road to broadcasting as we know it today.  Image source:  https://www.flipkart.com/ Beck was born in London on 14 November 1862, one of six children of John Harry Beck and his wife Elizabeth (née Arnold). He was educated at St. Paul's School, London, and studied engineering at King's College London.   Image source:  https://www.tatacliq.com/ He went on to work for some years with his father, who was a consulting engineer based in London, before establishing himself as a consulting engineer in his own right.  Image source:  https://paytmmall.com/ Beck marr
