Randi Altschul

Randice-Lisa "Randi" Altschul (born 1960) is an American toy developer and inventor based in Cliffside Park, New Jersey.

With little technical training or engineering knowledge, she developed toys and board games that saw great success.

Altshul also made money from selling her ideas for board games whose marketing relied on a link with other popular American television series like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and The Simpsons.

This moment was in her mind for quite a long time, which eventually pushed her to seek an alternative option to mobile phones.

In November 1999, Altschul teamed up with Lee Volte, the Senior Vice President of Research and Development at Tyco, to create the first disposable phone.
