"Flash Of Genius", Movie about Robert Kearns opens in theaters October 3
This movie starring Greg Kinnear is based on the fascinating story about Dr. Robert Kearns, inventor of the intermittent windshield wiper, who spent several decades in legal battles with three major auto companies attempting to collect on his patent, to whom he submitted his invention, each of which promptly rejected it; and then turned around and put the device to use.

Bob was twice a speaker at the HIA and was a member for a year during some of the legal proceedings, and became a very dear friend to several of our officers who really got to know him up close and personal. You can see a trailer by clicking here Flash Of genius
