,Steve Paul Jobs (February 24, 1955 October 5, 2011) was an famous American businessman, inventor, and industrial designer. He was the co-founder, chairman, and CEO of Apple Inc; CEO and majority shareholder of Pixar; a member of The Walt Disney Companys board of directors following its acquisition of Pixar; and founder, chairman, and CEO of NeXT. Jobs is widely recognized as a pioneer of the microcomputer revolution of the 1970s and 1980s, along with Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak. Jobss official biographer, Walter Isaacson, described him as a “creative entrepreneur whose passion for perfection and ferocious drive revolutionized six industries: personal computers, animated movies, music, phones, tablet computing, and digital publishing.“,Childhood,when Jobs biological mother gave birth to Jobs on February 24, 1955, she decided to chose an adoptive couple for him , as there was a strong stigma against bearing a child out of wedlock and raising it as a single mother in the United States in that time. So Jobs father and mother , Paul Jobs and Clara Hagopian, adopted and raised him in a hotbed of counterculture, the San Francisco Bay Area during the 1960s.,The family moved to California in 1961. During this time , Paul built a workbench in his garage for his son in order to “pass along his love of mechanics.“Jobs meanwhile admired his fathers craftsmanship “because he knew how to build anything. Jobs was deeply involved in electronics and befriended many of the engineers who lived in the neighborhood.,Adolescence,In 1967, the Jobs family moved to Crist Drive in Los Altos, California because Jobs became a “socially awkward loner”in the pre-middle school Bill Fernandez, a fellow electronics hobbyist who was in the same grade as him , was his first friend after the move. He alao introduced Jobs to 18-year-old electronics whiz and Homestead High alumn Steve Wozniak, who was the same co-founder of the Apple corporation later. He began his first year there in Homestead High School in late 1968, but he also had no interest in sports and said he was always a loner. But he underwent a change during mid-1970, he started to read more outside of just science and technology Shakespeare, Plato,King Lear and so on. From that point, Jobs developed two different circles of friends: those who were involved in electronics and engineering and those who were interested in art and literature In 1971 after Wozniak began University of California, Berkeley, Jobs began to visit him in Berkeley a few times a week. This experience led him to study in nearby Stanford Universitys student union. Jobs also decided that rather than join the electronics club and learned lots of new things,Reed College,Later in the year, Jobs enrolled at Reed College in Portland, Oregon. Reed was an expensive college which Paul and Clara could ill afford. They were spending much of their life savings on their sons higher education . So Jobs planned to drop out of Reed because he did not want to spend his parents money on it , He continued to attend by auditing classes, including a course on calligraphy . In a 2005 commencement speech for Stanford University, Jobs states that during this period, he slept on the floor in friends dorm rooms, returned Coke bottles for food money, and got weekly free meals at the local Hare Krishna temple. In that same speech, Jobs said: “If I had never dropped in on that single calligraphy course in college, the Mac would have never had multiple typefaces or proportionally spaced fonts.“,Apple,In 1973, Steve Wozniak designed his own version of the classic video game Pong. After finishing it, Wozniak gave the board to Jobs, who then took the game down to Atari, Inc. Atari thought that Jobs had built it and gave him a job as a technician.Ataris cofounder Nolan Bushnell later described him as “difficult but valuable“, pointing out that “he was very often the smartest guy in the room, and he would let people know that. Jobs traveled to India in mid-1974 with his Reed friend , in search of spiritual enlightenment.After staying for seven months, Jobs left India and returned to the US . Jobs had changed his appearance; his head was shaved and he wore traditional Indian clothing.“,Wozniak had designed a low-cost digital “blue box“ to generate the necessary tones to manipulate the telephone network, allowing free long-distance calls. In a 1994 interview,Jobs said that if not for the blue boxes, there would have been no Apple. In 1976, Wozniak invented the Apple I computer. After Wozniak showed it to Jobs, who suggested that they sell it, they formed Apple Computer in the garage of Jobss Los Altos home .In 1977, Jobs and Wozniak introduced the Apple II at the West Coast Computer Faire. It was the first consumer product sold by Apple Computer and was one of the first highly successful mass-produced microcomputer products,Leave,In 1985, Apple President and CEO Sculley had little control over chairman of the board Jobss Macintos
