George Eastman
George Eastman was an American inventor, businessman, and philanthropist who founded the Eastman Kodak Company in 1880. He revolutionized photography by developing the first commercially successful roll film and introducing the Kodak camera, which made photography accessible to the general public. Eastman's innovations laid the groundwork for the modern photography industry, and his company became synonymous with photographic film for much of the 20th century. Despite Kodak's eventual decline due to its failure to adapt to digital technology, Eastman's legacy as a pioneer in the field of photography remains significant.
