See wikipedia, the homework doers friend. Shannon attributed its origin to John W. Tukey, who had written a Bell Labs paper. Vannevar Bush had written in 1936 of "bits of information" that could be stored on the punch cards.
Its not clear from this whether Bush was using bits in the everyday sense of 'pieces of information' or as a contraction of 'binary digit'. So, it could be Bush or Tukey.
