Steve Jobs Biographer Interviewed In 60 Minutes

by Ahmed Omar on October 24, 2011

CBS has just finished posting their interview with the authorized Steve Jobs biographer Walter Isaacson. Below you can watch all the 4 parts of the full interview.

An excerpt:

Walter Isaacson: He’s not warm and fuzzy.

And to do it, Isaacson interviewed more than 100 people – Jobs’ friends, family, co-workers and competitors.

Steve Kroft: I think it’s a tough book.

Isaacson: It’s a book that’s fair. I mean, this is a real human being.

Kroft: He had lots of flaws.

Isaacson: He was very petulant. He was very brittle. He could be very, very mean to people at times. Whether it was to a waitress in a restaurant, or to a guy who had stayed up all night coding, he could just really just go at them and say, “You’re doin’ this all wrong. It’s horrible.” And you’d say, “Why did you do that? Why weren’t you nicer?” And he’d say, “I really wanna be with people who demand perfection. And this is who I am.”
