Steve Jobs, was born Feb 24, 1955, in San Francisco California. Steve's mum was a single parent who was not married and attending graduate school. In the 50's it was considered a shamful thing to have a child when you'r not married so she gave her son up for adoption right after he was born. Steve was adopted by Paul and clara Jobs who named their new son Steven.
School was not Steven's favourite thing, and he would often get into trouble. While he was attending high school in Cupertino he had found compters very interesting and wanted to learn more. He started to visit Hewlett Packard company, taking part in an after school part time lecture. He was soon hired and worked during the summer, he had met Steve Woziak who would later become his busines partner in the computer industry.
In 1976 Steve Wozniak showed Steve jobs a compter that he had designed for himself, he convinced Steve jobs to help him and to start a company selling printed circuit boards. By April of that same year the two men founded Apple compter. Later John Scully joined Steve and released the MacIntosh computers.
