The paperback edition of Steve Jobs: A Biography will be available on September 10th, featuring a younger Steve on the cover and a new afterword, reports AllThingsD.
The photo used on the hardback, taken by Albert Watson in 2006, was based on the pose of the much earlier photo used on the paperback, taken by Norman Seeff in 1984 – the year the Macintosh was launched. Steeff also took the famous photo of Jobs posing with that Mac, which Time used as its cover photo for its commemorative issue shortly after his death …
When shooting the 2006 version, Watson apparently said to Jobs, “Think about the next project you have on the table,” and then just before he shot the photo, “Think about instances where people have challenged you.”
