Philo Farnsworth
Philo Farnsworth was born in 1906 near Beaver City Utah. Philo was an inventor. He invented the television. He conceived the basics of electric television when he was thirteen years old. When Philo was twelve he moved to Rigby Idaho. Philo lived four miles away from the nearest high school so he had to ride a horse to school every day. Philo went to Brigham Young University. I got this information from Times 100.com and About.com.

This has the potential to be a very interesting article — I’d encourage you to add a few details about the invention of the TV (you mention it once and then never again, but this is Farnsworth’s claim to fame!) Also, remember to capitalize the names of cities, such as Beaver City, Utah.
