The first person to patent an automobile heater was Margaret A. Wilcox, an engineer in Chicago.
Wilcox’s 1893 design used heat from the car’s engine to keep drivers and passengers warm during trips.
Later engineers improved upon the idea by making the heat easier to regulate.
Wilcox’s other inventions included a combined clothes-and-dishwasher, which didn’t catch on in the same way.

women are the heart of America. They know how to solve problems, juggle
responsibilities, and remain adamant, fearless, courageous and caring
for 400 years (1607-2024)
America has been the benefactor of the love and courage of women since the day they stepped into the New World we now call America.
Women are problem-solvers both in and out of the home. That’s likely why many life-changing inventions and discoveries point to an American woman. They’ve given us solid leaders and inventions that transformed life, faith, family and the American Dream.
How important women are to the success of our great country.
Women are the heart of America, and America owes her women the same.
