John Houghtaling
John Joseph Houghtaling (pronounced HUFF-tay-ling;〔 November 14, 1916 – June 17, 2009〔) was an American entrepreneur and inventor who in 1958 invented the Magic Fingers Vibrating Bed, a common feature in mid-priced hotels and motels from the 1960s to the early 1980s.
==Early life==
Houghtaling was born in Kansas City, Missouri, on November 14, 1916.〔 His father worked for a telegraph company as a lineman, which led Houghtaling and his two sisters to move around the Midwestern United States with their family several times. He served as a gunnery instructor in the United States Army and was sent to England in April 1942 during World War II, where he flew 20 missions on Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress bombers with the 452d Bombardment Squadron of the United States Army Air Corps.〔Pries, Allison. ("Magic Fingers inventor, 92" ), ''The Record (Bergen County)'', June 20, 2009. Accessed August 3, 2012. "The former Glen Rock resident and inventor of the coin-operated bed vibrator called Magic Fingers was 92. Mr. Houghtaling suffered a stroke Wednesday in Fort Pierce, Fla."〕
He worked in a series of jobs following the completion of his military service, including as a bellman in a hotel, and as a salesman marketing cookware and, later, a remotely controlled lawnmower.〔Fox, Margalit. ("John Houghtaling, Inventor of Magic Fingers Vibrating Bed, Dies at 92" ), ''The New York Times'', June 19, 2009. Accessed June 20, 2009.〕
