In 2005 Steve Jobs gave his first and only 'commencement address' – a lecture given to the graduating class at Standford University in the US, an audience of 23,000 students. This lecture was to be the most famous such address and resulted in 26 million viewers once it hit the web. It was an opportunity for Jobs to pause and reflect, to provide a personal and professional summation of his remarkable life. Steve Jobs Life By Design, is based on this lecture, with the author, George Beahm connecting the dots and providing the examples, context and perspective from Jobs' life to expand on each lesson.

George Beahm is a New York Times bestselling author. Beahm has also published more than thirty books on popular culture subjects, including Michael Jordan, J.K. Rowling, Philip Pullman, C.S. Lewis, J.R.R. Tolkien, Indiana Jones, Anne Rice, Patricia Cornwell, the Big Bang Theory television show, Caribbean Pirates, censorship, and Stephen King (several books). Among his most recent books is I, Steve: Steve Jobs in His Own Words which debuted on the New York Times bestseller list at #3, and has sold more than two dozen foreign language editions.
