Tesla Recognitions
Nikola Tesla was induced into the "National
Inventors Hall of Fame"
Nikola Tesla was inducted into
the Consumer Electronics Hall of Fame, in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Tesla Memorial Society of New York is grateful to
Kelly E. Crowley, Construction Manager Target Corporation for his
efforts
I just
learned of your web-site. I first studied Tesla about 25 years ago when
I was first becoming deeply involved in the consumer electronics
industry.
I
have a story or two regarding him and his inspiration to me and was
personally and singularly involved in Nikola's induction into the
Consumer Electronics Hall of Fame in Las Vegas, Nevada as one of the
inaugural inductees. A plaque and Biography resides there that I am
proud to have been involved with in making sure this great man was
honored and recognized for his role in the birth of an industry.
I
was also, with the help of the State Department and the assistance
of Madalyn Albright, able to get a copy of the plaque and biography
to the Nikola Tesla Museum in Belgrade in a time when Diplomatic
Relations and direct correspondence with Belgrade was virtually
impossible.
I
look forward to spending much time in your web site and am glad to
know others who are as interested, fascinated and inspired by the
thinking and works of Nikola.
Very truly yours,
Kelly E. Crowley

radiant energy.
With more than 270 patents awarded to him over the course of his
lifetime, Tesla shaped the twentieth century with his invention of
