    The Unsolved Disappearance of the Man Who Invented Motion Pictures | Paul Fischer

    The Unsolved Disappearance of the Man Who Invented Motion Pictures | Paul Fischer

    Louis Le Prince was the first person to create moving pictures—but just weeks before unveiling his invention to the world, he mysteriously disappeared.
    Three and a half years later, Thomas Edison, Le Prince’s rival, made the device public, claiming to have invented it himself. And the man who had dedicated his life to preserving memories was himself lost to history—until now!
