A World in Pictures Alexander Reese

   Steve Jobs is one of those people who everyone knows about. He revolutionized the way we use computers and the way we make them. A master marketer, possibly the best. This cover was on the October issue of Time Magazine in 2011, shortly after Steve Jobs died of pancreatic cancer. This photo features him with an original Macintosh. Thousands of people practically worship Jobs for his innovation and were shocked by his death. Along with Wozniak, he created one of the most valuable companies in the world, even if through some rather questionable means. His work around the 80's was where he really made his name with the creation of the Macintosh. Even my father had one. When he was fired from his own company, he came back later to save it from the financial ruin it was inevitably facing. He was somewhat cocky, which contributed to why he died since he considered himself stronger than the cancer. He knew he was a giant of a man (maybe not in size or strength) but few have achieved such levels of greatness as Jobs.
