History
Introduction
About a hundred years ago, 23 engineers came together in Washington, D.C., to form a society of engineers who were interested in the science of engineering, particularly telephony, telegraphy, and radio. The most notable of these was Alexander Graham Bell. He signed on as a founding member and director, along with the Smithsonian Institution.
In recognition of the 100th anniversary of the founding of what became the Washington Section of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, section members have compiled what they could glean from research and the recollections of several contributors about the first 100 years of the section.
