description: "Zachary \"Zora\" Arkus-Duntov was a Russian and American engineer whose work on the Chevrolet Corvette earned him the nickname \"Father of the Corvette.\" He is sometimes erroneously referred to as the inventor of the Corvette; that title belongs to Harley Earl. He was also a racing driver, appearing at the 24 Hours of Le Mans four times and taking class wins in 1954 and 1955."
