William Edward Sawyer (1850 – April 15, 1883) was an American inventor in the field of electrical engineering and electric lighting. His electric lamps were used to illuminate the Chicago's 1893 World's Columbian Exposition. He was one of the founders of the Electro-Dynamic Light Company that manufactured incandescent electric lamps and developed city electrical distribution systems. He won many lawsuits against Thomas A. Edison for the invention of the incandescent electric lamp. Sawyer had dozens of patents, with some of his inventions related to electric lights, electric meters, telegraph facsimile machines, and television technology.

  • William Edward Sawyer (* 1850 in Brunswick, Maine; † 15. April 1883 in New York City) war ein Ingenieur und auf dem Gebiet der frühen Elektrotechnik. Um 1880 machte er zahlreiche brauchbare und geschäftstaugliche Erfindungen zu den Anwendungsbereichen der damals boomenden neuen Industriebranche. Die von Sawyer entwickelte Glühlampe war zu dieser Zeit Konkurrenz für Thomas A. Edisons Glühlampe. Für die Nachwelt sind besonders seine Pläne für ein fernsehähnliches elektrisches Gerät interessant – ein englisch Apparatus for rendering visible objects at a distance, das Sawyer 1877 erstmals vor Zeugen präsentierte und im Scientific American vom 12. Juni 1880 mit technischen Skizzen beschrieb. (de)
