In this edition of This Week in Business History, Kelly Barner tells the stories behind three inventors: an indoor plumbing innovator, a straw tinkerer, and the woman who still holds the record for the most patents among black, female inventors. We’ll also mark some notable business birthdays and say good-bye to the man who was most definitely a winner at The Game of Life.
