Eddy Clifford Jerman (November 21, 1865 – September 13, 1936) was an American inventor and an early expert in the techniques of medical radiography.
In the years that followed the discovery of X-rays, Jerman was one of the first people to focus on the details that created quality X-ray images, such as exposure and positioning.
He served as an examiner during the initial efforts to license personnel who took X-rays.
He has been referred to as "the father of radiography".
