Steve Jobs
Steven Paul "Steve" Jobs was an American computer entrepreneur and innovator. He was co-founder, chairman,
and chief executive officer of Apple Inc. Jobs also previously served as chief executive of Pixar Animation Studios;
he became a member of the board of directors of The Walt Disney Company in 2006, following the acquisition of
Pixar by Disney. He was credited in Toy Story (1995) as an executive producer.
In the late 1970s, Jobs - along with Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak, Mike Markkula and others - designed,
developed, and marketed one of the first commercially successful lines of personal computers, the Apple II series.
In the early 1980s, Jobs was among the first to see the commercial potential of Xerox PARC's mouse-driven graphical
user interface, which led to the creation of the Macintosh. (from wikipedia.org)
