Happy Birthday, Steve Jobs, Creator of Apple Computers
Born to a machinist father and accountant mother in a pocket of northern California now known as Silicon Valley , Steve Jobs was quickly drawn to the wealth of technology and innovation that surrounded him, going to work for Hewlett-Packard on summer breaks during high school. There he met a college dropout named Stephen Wozniak , who worked as an engineer, but was drawn to creating electronic gadgets. The two would meet again after Jobs dropped out of Reed College in Oregon , when they both worked as game designers for Atari . Far from content with following another’s path, Jobs proposed that Wozniak help him build a personal computer of his own, providing a hands-on alternative to the massive machines that had defined the field until then.
