Steve's death was announced by Apple in a statement:
We are deeply saddened to announce that Steve Jobs passed away today. Steve's brilliance, passion and energy were the source of countless innovations that enrich and improve all of our lives. The world is immeasurably better because of Steve. His greatest love was for his wife, Laurene, and his family. Our hearts go out to them and to all who were touched by his extraordinary gifts."
Steve Jobs was born in San Francisco, California, U.S. February 24, 1955. One thing are finding surprising is that Steve was adopted by the family of Paul Jobs and Clara Jobs. Steve's biological parents met as 23 year old students at the University of Wisconsin at Madison, and his mother, Joanne Schieble, became pregnant in 1954. Steve's father was a Syrian Muslim Immigrant. At first, Schieble's father would not permit her to marry an Arab, so Schieble, without warning moved to San Francisco to have Jobs. She then put him up for adoption. Eventually, Schieble and Steve's father Addulfattah Jandali were married and had a second child, but they divorced when she was 4 years old.
The Apple chairman and former CEO, Steven P. Jobs was as American computer entrepreneur most famously known for the first iPhone, iPad, iPod and Mac. Jobs made personal computers, tablets, smart phones and digital animation mass-market products.
