The staff at The Henry Ford

Milton and Susan Wright raised their children to value learning, embrace hard work and trust family above everyone else. These traits served their youngest sons, Wilbur and Orville, well in their methodical work to invent, refine and patent the first airplane. The brothers’ bicycle shop provided income and insight for their research. Katharine, their younger sister, offered unfailing support and encouragement at every step.
