Biographical/Historical | As a high school student at Homestead High, Chris Espinosa was an early regular at Homebrew Computing Club meetings, and was employee number 8 at Apple. He developed programs to show at demos of the machine, and ran public demos of the Apple II until 1978, when he graduated from high school and started his freshman year at the University of California, Berkeley. While at Berkeley, he rewrote the Apple II user guide at the behest of Jef Raskin, Apple's publications manager. He returned to Apple full-time and was director of documentation for the Macintosh project. He later spent a number of years working in Apple's marketing division. |
