Sorensen (with others, notably Walter Flanders, Clarence Avery, and Ed Martin) is credited with developing the first automotive assembly line, having formulated the idea of moving a product (for cars, this would be in the form of the chassis) through multiple workstations.
He taught at a rural school for a year, and then, in 1902, became the head of manual training in the Battle Creek public schools.
