Garrett Morgan, 1877-1963, was an entrepreneur and inventor. He had a grade-school education with a gift for excellence and designing machines that also saved lives. It all started with his first job repairing sewing machines as a teen and later opened his own repair shop. He went on to design items like an early version of the gas mask, hair straightener and the first traffic light with the warning yellow light which was patented in 1923. #BlackHistoryMonth #BankonBETTER
