Biography

Professor Farnsworth's Reading Glasses

Hubert J. Farnsworth is an aged, eccentric inventor, and also the owner of Planet Express. The last living relative of Fry, he is crotchety, absent-minded, and (sometimes) brilliant. In addition to inventing things and running Planet Express, he also has tenure as a Professor at Mars University, where he teaches a class on "The Mathematics of Quantum Neutrino Fields" - a title he made up to scare students out of taking his class. He grew up in Hell's Laboratory, the nerdiest slum in New New York.
