Russell Kirsch is dead and here is a note on him important place in technological history…..

PORTLAND, Oregon (AP) – Russell Kirsch, a computer scientist credited with inventing the pixel and scanning the world’s first digital photograph, died August 11 at his home in Portland, Oregon.   The Oregonian reports he was 91.

In 1957, Kirsch created a small, 2-by-2-inch black-and-white digital image of his son, Walden, as an infant.   This was among the first images ever scanned into a computer.   A 2010 Wired magazine article about Kirsch said his work “laid the foundations for satellite imagery, CT scans, virtual reality and Facebook.”   

Kirsch was born in Manhattan in 1929, and was the son of Jewish immigrants from Russia and Hungary.
