1958 Robot – Michael Cook
Thirteen-year-old Michael Cook, an eighth-grader at Eastwood Junior High School in Washington Township (now Eastwood Middle School), showed off his robot, "Elmo," during the Central Indiana Science Fair at Butler University's College of Pharmacy on April 11, 1958. Michael spent two months building Elmo out of $25 worth of wire, switches, stovepipe, old TV tubes, cardboard and anything else he could get his hands on. Cook still lives in Central Indiana and works as a claims adjuster for Safeco Claims in Indianapolis. He is married, with two children and three grandchildren. Cook says Elmo was more of a "stage robot" than anything scientific. He didn't win a prize from the science fair, but he did win a crowd appreciation award. (Bob Doeppers / The News)
