Jan. 31, 2019 -- Have you ever wondered how ice cream was invented? Or who created the first type-writer with capital and lowercase letters? Or thought about the birth place of the great American Circus? These are just some of the topics that could be explored in a new video segment of the My Westchester campaign called “Westchester, Did You Know?” Each month, a new segment will highlight something different, and little-known about the County, but something that makes #OurWestchester unique.
Westchester County Executive George Latimer said: “Westchester County is a special place, fortunate to be home to a wealth of talented, successful individuals. Many of our nation’s greatest inventors were born and raised right here in our County, creating inventions that have become a part of our everyday life. This video segment will highlight just some of the things that make us proud to call Westchester County home.”
