  • Ransom Eli Olds (1864–1950) was a foundational pioneer of the American automobile industry. He is celebrated as the inventor of the stationary assembly line and the founder of both the Oldsmobile and REO Motor Car Company. In 1901, after a factory fire destroyed his facility in Detroit, Olds returned to Lansing, Michigan, and pioneered the first stationary assembly line. This revolutionized manufacturing, letting him exponentially increase production.
