Time Photographer Diana Walker's Favorite Shots of Steve Jobs

by

Longtime Time Magazine photographer Diana Walker has shared a few of her favorite photographs of Steve Jobs, and briefly sharing her experiences working with him.

He was so much fun because he was so quick—he was such a fast study. You showed him anything and he could get it in a second. I was always fascinated by his design sense. It was wonderful because he liked my pictures.

In this photo at Jobs' home office in 2004, we can see a model of the then new Power Mac G5 on his desk and a plethora of books, files and knick-knacks on the shelves in the background.

Why is the screen so big, but the Power Mac G5 so small?

Nice images -- I'm going to show the home office image to my wife, because mine is just as messy and disorganised looking (she'll have to start accepting me for the genius that I am).

That's what I kept trying to figure out. It looks like a PM G5 on the desk, but very small. Even if that is a large monitor, the PowerMac looks very tiny.

Looks like that is just a model of the G5, and the real machine is on the floor. Still a great shot

What is the black, finned box with the VGA cable running out of it??

That's a Genelec 1029a speaker (it's also a IEC power cable not a VGA cable)
