My hero is Steven Jobs. Steven Jobs is the CEO of Apple inc. He also was the CEO of Pixar till it was taken over by Walt Disney. Also Steven Jobs is the the largest share holder for Walt Disney world. He is also a member of there board of directors. He could be the leader of both computer and entertainment industries. Also in Fortune magazine, he is known as the most powerful businessman in the world.

Another thing about Steven Jobs that is cool is that in the late 70's he helped popularize Apple's personal computer. Although in 1985, "after losing a power struggle with the board of directors, he resigned from Apple and founded NExT which was a computer platform development company that specialized in higher education and business markets." Though in 1997 Apple bought out NExT and got Steven Jobs back and he served as its chief executive officer.
