Garrett Augustus Morgan was an African American inventor who originated a respiratory protective hood (similar to the modern gas masks), invented a hair-straightening preparation, and patented a type of traffic light signal. He is also renowned for a heroic rescue in which he used his hood to save workers trapped in a tunnel system filled with fumes.
