Synopsis
Garrett Morgan was always thinking of ways to make the world a safer place. Protecting firefighters led to his invention of the first gas mask. Witnessing a terrible traffic accident inspired him to invent the traffic signal. Morgan started out without money or education and lived at a time when laws limited the freedom of African Americans, but nothing could stop his busy mind and creative determination. This easy-to-read biography pieces together the little known but compelling story of a talented inventor who was also an activist for African-American rights.
