Alexander Graham Bell was a Scottish-born inventor, teacher, scientist and philanthropist, most widely known for the invention of the telephone. Bell invented his telephone while in Canada, later became a U.S. citizen, and still later lived a great part of his life (and died) at his estate in Nova Scotia, thus becoming an honorary son (but not officially a citizen) to many Canadians.
