Early Years
Jobs was born in San Francisco, California, and was adopted as an infant. He grew up just south of his birthplace in Cupertino, California. After graduating from Homestead High School, Jobs enrolled at Reed College in Portland, Oregon. However, he dropped out after only one semester. In 1974, Jobs moved back to California before embarking on a spiritual journey to India. Not long after returning to California, Jobs and Steve Wozniak founded Apple Computers. -
Jobs Returns to Apple
After the departure of Gil Amelio, Jobs became Apple's interim CEO. Jobs regained the confidence of the board of directors when design developments and the introduction of the iMac led to increased sales. Jobs ultimately reestablished Apple as one of the most cutting-edge tech companies. With products such as the iPod and the iPhone, Apple became more of a household name than ever before. -
