Ep 22: Ed Catmull, President of Pixar, on Steve Jobs, Stories, and Lessons Learned

Ed Catmull is co-founder of Pixar Animation Studios (along with Steve Jobs and John Lasseter) and president of Pixar Animation and Disney Animation. Ed has received five Academy Awards, and -- as a computer scientist -- he has contributed to many important developments in computer graphics. He is the author of Creativity, Inc., which Forbes has said "just might be the best business book ever written." (!)This episode touches on a lot, including lessons learned from George Lucas and Steve Jobs, the origins of Pixar, personal challenges, routines, favorite books, and much more. Enjoy!
