EDMONTON – In the 25-year-old photo, a grinning Greg Gazin stands beside a young Steve Jobs.
Gazin was a 26-year-old University of Alberta student when he met Jobs in February 1986 at the Young Entrepreneurs Organization conference near Los Angeles, where Jobs was honoured as the top entrepreneur of 1985.
Nearly 31, Jobs was already approaching rock star status when Gazin handed him a brochure for the U of A’s Young Executives Club. In the photo, the Apple icon gazes down with his notorious eye for script.
