Mordecai Meirowitz
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
Mordecai Meirowitz (born c. 1922-1927 in Romania) was an Israeli postmaster and telecommunications expert.
Meirowitz invented the code-breaking board game Master Mind. After being rejected by leading games companies, he sparked the interest of a Leicester-based company, Invicta Plastics, which restyled and renamed the game.[1]
Released in 1971, the game sold over 50 million sets in 80 countries, making it the most successful new game of the 1970s.[2]
