Charles Lindbergh's Quotes
Did You Know?
Charles Lindbergh completed the first solo nonstop transatlantic flight in history, flying from New York to Paris in 33.5 hours in May 1927.
Despite his aviation achievements, Lindbergh became controversial for his isolationist views and apparent Nazi sympathies before World War II.
He invented an early artificial heart in collaboration with French surgeon Alexis Carrel in the 1930s.
Lindbergh's infant son was kidnapped and murdered in 1932, leading to what was called "The Crime of the Century" and resulting in the Lindbergh Law making kidnapping a federal offense.
