An Amazon best book of 2016 in BUSINESS & LEADERSHIP
The never-before-told story of Pixar's improbable success.
"Hi, Lawrence?" the caller asked. "This is Steve Jobs. I saw your picture in a magazine a few years ago and thought we'd work together someday."
After Steve Jobs was unceremoniously dismissed from Apple, he turned his attention to a little-known graphics art company that he owned called Pixar.
One day, out of the blue, Jobs called Lawrence Levy, a Harvard-trained lawyer and Silicon Valley executive to whom he had never spoken before, in the hope of persuading Levy to help him get Pixar on the right track.
What Levy found in Pixar was a company on the verge of failure. To Pixar and Beyond is the extraordinary story of what happened next: How Levy, working closely with Jobs and the Pixar team, produced and implemented a highly improbable roadmap that transformed the sleepy graphics art studio into one of Hollywood's greatest success stories.
Set in the worlds of Silicon Valley and Hollywood, the book takes listeners inside Pixar, Disney, law firms, and investment banks. It provides an up-close, first-hand account of Pixar's stunning ascent, how it took risks, Levy's enduring collaboration and friendship with Jobs, and how Levy came to see in Pixar deeper parallels that apply to all aspects of our lives.

Would you listen to To Pixar and Beyond again? Why?
I would. To Pixar and Beyond does a good job of jumping into the story and taking you on the journey of a finance guy who is pulled into the world of Steve Jobs and given the hot seat position of making Pixar work while Steve is off working at NEXT.When Pixar takes off, Steve starts dropping by and shows more interest, and all of the characters soon find themselves rubbing shoulders with Eisner, Katzenberg, Disney, and everyone else who took Pixar from an idea that was losing money to a major player in movies.
It is a good read, a great story, and well done.
What other book might you compare To Pixar and Beyond to and why?
"George Lucas", "My Happy Days In Hollywood", any of the biographies or memoirs that do a good job of taking a production company from it's beginning to it's end and tells the fun stories in between.What about Bronson Pinchot’s performance did you like?
I could feel like I was there. I could see the main character during the stories. He gave the words life.If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
"Be Careful What You Say Yes To; You Might Be Successful".Any additional comments?
It was an enjoyable read and as someone who is running out of Hollywood memoirs and biographies to read, I was glad I got it.A great telling of the inner workings of Pixar.
