Michael Stern Hart (March 8, 1947 – September 6, 2011) was an American author, best known as the inventor of the electronic book (or ebook) and the founder of Project Gutenberg (PG), the first project to make ebooks freely available via the Internet.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Hobbes' Internet Timeline )〕 He published ebooks years before the Internet existed via the ARPANET, and later on BBS networks and Gopher servers. Hart devoted his life after founding PG in 1971 to digitizing and distributing literature from works in the public domain with free and expired copyrights. The first ebooks (etexts)〔 were typed in plain text format〔〔 and published as text files; other formats were made available later. Hart typed most of the early ebooks himself; later, volunteers helped expand the project.〔 ==Early life== Michael Hart was born on March 8, 1947 in Tacoma, Washington. His father was an accountant and his mother, a former cryptanalyst during World War II, was a business manager at a retail store. In 1958 his family relocated to Urbana, Illinois, and his father and mother became college professors in Shakespearean studies and mathematics education, respectively. Hart attended the University of Illinois, graduating in just two years with a degree in Human-Machine Interfaces.〔 ((in pdf ))〕 He then attended but did not complete graduate school.
