Black kids might embrace technology with more enthusiasm if they knew someone like Dr. Mark Dean already was leading the way. You may not have heard of Dr. Mark Dean. But almost everything in your life has been affected by his work.

Dr. Dean is a Ph.D. from Stanford University. He is in the National Hall of Inventors. He has more than 30 patents pending. He is a vice president with IBM. And he is also the architect of the modern-day personal computer. Dr. Dean holds three of the original nine patents on the computer that all PCs are based upon. And, Dr. Mark Dean is an African American.

So how is it that we can celebrate the 20th anniversary of the IBM personal computer without reading or hearing a single word about him? History is cruel when it comes to telling the stories of African Americans. Dr. Dean isn't the first Black inventor to be overlooked.

Consider John Stanard, inventor of the refrigerator; Garret Morgan inventor of the traffic light; George Sampson, creator of the clothes dryer; Alexander Miles and his elevator; Lewis Latimer and the electric lamp. Hopefully, Dr. Mark Dean won't go away as quietly as they did. He certainly shouldn't. Dr. Dean helped start a Digital Revolution that created people like Microsoft's Bill Gates and Dell Computer's Michael Dell. Millions of jobs in information technology can be traced back directly to Dr. Dean.

Although technically Dr. Dean can't be credited with creating the computer-- that is left to Alan Turing, a pioneering 20th-century English mathematician -- Dr. Dean rightly deserves to take a bow for the PC, the personal computer, the machine we use today. The computer really wasn't practical for home or small business use until Dean came along, leading a team that developed the interior architecture that enables multiple devices, such as modems and printers, to be connected to personal computers. In other words, because of Dr. Dean, the PC became a part of our daily lives.

For most of us, changing the face of society would have been enough. But not for Dr. Dean. Still in his early forties, he has a lot of inventing left in him. He recently made history again by leading the design team responsible for creating the first 1-gigahertz processor chip, another huge step in making computers faster and smaller.

As the world congratulates itself for the new Digital Age brought on by the personal computer, we need to guarantee that the African-American story is part of the hoopla surrounding the most stunning technological advance the world has ever seen. We cannot afford to let Dr. Mark Dean become a footnote in history. He is well worth his own history book!
