Chester Carlson (February 8, 1906 - September 19, 1968) was an American physicist and inventor born in Seattle, Washington. He invented electrophotography and instant copying, later to be known as Xerox.
As a high school student, Carlson published a chemical magazine to support his invalid parents.

Mallory Company, where he began working for the patent department in 1930. |
