Laurene Powell Jobs
Laurene Powell Jobs, Steve Jobs’ ex-wife, was previously married to Steve Jobs for a period of time. His visit at Stanford Business School in 1989 resulted in a friendship that lasted until his tragic death in 2011 as a result of a heart attack. The fact that he was one of the greatest technological brains of the twentieth century didn’t make him or his wife alone among those who had accomplished great things in their lives.
Among the causes supported by Laurene’s firm, the Emerson Collective are immigration, education, and environmental improvements. Laurene was the driving force behind Emerson Collective. She is also working with charities that provide financial assistance to college students who do not have the financial wherewithal to do so on their own.
