Nobel Prize Trivia
Youngest Nobel Prize Winner Ever: William Lawrence Bragg in 1915 has been the youngest Nobel Prize winner ever. He was only 25 when he received the award for his work "Analysis of Crystal Structure by Means of X-rays" He received the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1915.
Won the Nobel Prize Twice: Marie Curie is one of the few people in the world who has received the Nobel Prize twice. Once in 1903 in Physics for her and her husband's (Pierre Curie) work on radiation phenomena. The second time in 1911 in Chemistry for discovery of the elements radium and polonium, by the isolation of radium and the study of the nature and compounds of this remarkable element. There have been only 4 married couples who have both received the Nobel Prize. Marie and Pierre Curie's daughter Irene Joliot-Curie also received a Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1935. A very Nobel family indeed.

Marie Curie is the most famous woman in the world even today, because it was she who turned the world upside down in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Polish and French physicist and chemist, teacher, public figure... The biography of this man is multifaceted and incredibly interesting.

Thomas Edison Born 1847 brilliant scientist and inventor
Early Adversity:  He did not learn to talk till he was 4. He was thrown out of school at age 12 as he was thought to be too dumb. He had hearing problems from age 14 (he eventually became completely deaf in one ear and could barely hear from the other) and had learning disability or dyslexia.
Overcoming Problems:  Over the course of his career Edison patented 1,093 inventions. He was one of the first inventors to apply the principles of mass production to the process of invention, and therefore is often credited with the creation of the first industrial research laboratory. He was also responsible for mass produced eletric bulb with a filament.

Edison believed in hard work, sometimes working twenty hours a day. He has been quoted as saying,
"Genius is one percent inspiration and 99 percent perspiration."
