Isaac Singer

Isaac Merrit Singer

Isaac Merritt Singer adalah seorang pengusaha, aktor dan penemu Amerika.[1] Salah satu penemuan terbesar adalah peneumuannya tentang mesin jahit, yaitu pada tahun 1851.[1] Nama Singer kemudian diabadikan menjadi merek mesin jahit "Singer".[1] Ada beberapa orang yang sudah mematenkan penemuannya tentang mesin jahit, tetapi keberhasilannya ditujukkan melalui kepraktisan mesin jahit yang ia temukan.[1] Mesin jahit yang ia temukan praktis dan mudah dipakai untuk kebutuhan rumah tangga, mulai dari bentuk hingga kemudahan pemakaiannya.[2] Setelah penemuannya berhasil dipatenkan, Singer menjadi pengusaha terkemuka di Amerika.[1] Bukan hanya di Amerika, perusahaannya melayani pesanan mesin jahit dari berbagai penjuru dunia.[1] Di Indonesia, mesin jahit Singer cukup dikenal dan mendapatkan reputasi yang baik pula.[1]

Singer lahir di Pittstown, New York pada tanggal 27 Oktober 1811, dan meninggal di Torquay, Inggris pada tanggal 23 Juli 1875.[2] Dia meninggalkan rumah untuk belajar pada usia 12 tahun, kemudian mengembangkan berbagai gagasan tentang teater, menjadi aktor, juga menjalin hubungan dengan banyak perempuan.[2] Salah satu hal yang banyak dicatat bahwa Singer memiliki enam belas anak tidak resmi, dan dua puluh empat anak dari berbagai istri.[2]
