Guglielmo Marconi (1874-1937) was an Italian inventor and physicist born on April 25th, 1874 in Bolognia, Italy. Marconi was a Nobel Prize-winning physicist/inventor for his work in wireless telegraphy in he which developed the first effective system of radio communication.
Early Life
Guglielmo was born in the small Italian town of Bolognia, Italy. He was the second and youngest son of Giuseppe Marconi and Annie Jameson. His father was a wealthy Italian landowner and his mother was Irish.
Marconi received a private education in Bologna & Florence. Throughout his bringing up, Guglielmo was highly interested in the properties of electricity. He would spend hours on hours reaching scientific publications and reenacting the experiments. Instead of attending university, Marconi was able to study with Vincenzo Rosa, a professor of electrophysics. It was with in this environment that Marconi was exposed to the works of Heinrich Hertz, James Clerk Maxwell, Oliver Joseph Lodge, and others conducting experiments to explain electromagnetic waves.
