    In 1918, the American Institute of Electrical Engineers (AIEE) selected Benjamin Garver Lamme as the recipient of the Edison Medal. He was honored for his contributions to the design of electrical machinery. By then, he had been Chief Engineer of the Westinghouse Electric Company since 1903 and had earned a reputation as one of the foremost electrical power engineers of his generation.
