Gutenberg at H.O.P.E Conference, 2006. Despite the extensive earlier
history, several publications report Michael S. Hart as the inventor of
the e-book. In 1971, the operators of the Xerox Sigma V mainframe at the
University of Illinois gave Hart extensive computer-time. Seeking a
worthy use of this resource, he created his first electronic document by
typing the United States Declaration of Independence into a computer.
Michael Stern Hart (March 8, 1947 – September 6, 2011) was an American
Author, best known as the inventor of the electronic book (or eBook) and
the founder of Project Gutenberg (PG), the first project to make eBooks
freely available via the Internet.
