Inventor's mistaken: atoms do shine (6,6)

I believe the answer is:

thomas edison

'inventor's' is the definition.
(Thomas Edison is an example)

'mistaken atoms do shine' is the wordplay.
'mistaken' indicates anagramming the letters.
'atoms'+'do'+'shine'='atomsdoshine'
'atomsdoshine' anagrammed gives 'THOMAS EDISON'.

(Another definition for thomas edison that I've seen is " Phonograph inventor".)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
