Hollywood and the tech industry are mourning the loss of Apple co-founder Steve Jobs. Mr. Jobs died at 56 from pancreatic cancer, having resigned from his position as CEO only months before. Throughout his life, Jobs challenged conventional computing and the digital world, creating original and unsurpassed devices like the iPod, iPad and iPhone.
Jobs bought George Lucas’s animation business and renamed it Pixar, creating some of the most-loved children’s films of the generation and pushing the limits of digital animation. Having befriended Michael Eisner’s successor Robert Iger, Jobs also brought movies and video clips to the iTunes interface.
