From 1998 to January 2012 (14 years) Chief Evangelist @ This was my second tour of duty at Apple. I held the position of "chief evangelist" and was an Apple fellow. My job description was to protect and preserve the Macintosh cult by doing whatever I had to do. From 1995 to 1997 (2 years) CEO @ Fog City Software created Claris Emailer and LetterRip, two Macintosh applications. This was a great company because I got to work with three of my favorite people in the world: Will Mayall, Kathryn Henkens, and Jud Spencer. From 1993 to 1995 (2 years) Columnist @ MacUser and Macworld were competitors back then. I wrote for both of them--though not simultaneously. I simply can't remember the dates of my employment with them! From 1989 to 1993 (4 years) CEO @ After listening to my own hype about the opportunities in Macintosh software, I left Apple to start a Macintosh database company. From 1987 to 1989 (2 years) Software Evangelist @ My job was to convince developers to create hardware and software products for a new computer that had a zero installed base, zero backward compatibility, and zero/month sales. Towards the end of my first tour of duty at Apple, I also managed the group that published the Apple-labeled software (MacWrite, MacPaint, MacDraw, etc) that became Claris. From 1983 to 1987 (4 years) Director of Marketing @ I will always have a soft spot in my heart for EduWare because this company enabled me to break into the tech sector from the jewelry business. I was rejected by many, many tech companies back then. From 1982 to 1983 (1 year) Vice President of Marketing @ This is my first real job: counting and schlepping diamonds and fine jewelry. It is where I truly learned to sell. The jewelry business is much tougher than the computer business. Marty Gruber, my boss at Nova, had a tremendous influence on me. From 1979 to 1983 (4 years)
