ConsciousSHIFT with Julie Ann Turner

LAWRENCE LEVY / TO PIXAR AND BEYOND 03/29/17


Listen Later

Steve Jobs, fresh from the sting of being
unceremoniously dismissed from Apple,
bought a little-known graphics company
called Pixar from George Lucas.

For years Jobs personally financed the company —
hoping that it would be his comeback story —
breaking new ground in the technology of computer animation.

For Pixar to lift off the ground though,
it would need help.

And that was where Steve Jobs turned
to Lawrence Levy, Julie Ann's ConsciousSHIFT
guest, and author of TO PIXAR AND BEYOND:
My Unlikely Journey with Steve Jobs to Make Entertainment History.

What Lawrence, a Harvard-trained lawyer
and executive, found as he explored Pixar -

Lawrence shares the story of what happened next:
how, working closely with Jobs, Lawrence produced

Join Julie Ann and Lawrence to discover the untold

and grow it into one of the most powerful and beloved
motion picture studios of our time.
