The original ethernet was invented by Robert Metcalf at the Xerox Parc (Palo Alto Research Center) in California in 1973-74. Here is the Wikipedia article about it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethernet
Its design was inspired by the ALOHAnet and incorporated by Metcalf in his PhD thesis.
FWIW, I have personally known Metcalf since the early 1980's when I sold 3-Com Corporation their first 100 IBM PC's.
