For General Electric he designed, with his colleague Charles Propster, the GE-225 in 1959. He cited his greatest contribution to be the first computer-controlled "point of sale" cash register.
He is the father of American film director Steven Spielberg.
Arnold Spielberg was the son of Rebecca and Samuel Spielberg, who were both born in Ukraine, and immigrated to the United States.
In 1960, Arnold traveled to Moscow as part of a delegation of electrical engineers from Phoenix.
