Well.... the patent is held by Edison and he got all the credit for it.
However, Edison had a large team of inventors, etc. working for him and most probably one or more of those individuals had a lot to do with inventing and developing it.

For the fascinating history of the light bulb (not what you might expect), check out Wikipedia:

who ever beats you to the patent office and steals your design
often the people who get the credit stole it from someone else by being aware of the laws and don't care about ethics or principle
history is written by the winners not loosers
