Brent Schlender is a writer, editor, and author, best known for his award-winning magazine profiles of prominent entrepreneurs and business leaders of the Digital Revolution. Starting with "The Wall Street Journal" in the late 1970s, and continuing after 1989 during a 20-year career at "FORTUNE" magazine, Schlender wrote dozens of in-depth feature stories about the exploits of many of Silicon Valley's most famous figures - Apple's Steve Jobs, Intel's Andy Grove and Craig Barrett, Oracle's Larry Ellison, Sun's Scott McNealy and Bill Joy, Google's Eric Schmidt, Lucasfilm's George Lucas, and Pixar's John Lasseter and Ed Catmull, to name just a few.

In 2010, SVForum, the largest and oldest industry organization in Silicon Valley, awarded Brent its Visionary Award for personifying the spirit innovation and entrepreneurship. In March of 2015, Crown Business published "Becoming Steve Jobs: The Evolution of a Reckless Upstart into a Visionary Leader," the culmination of a three-year collaboration between Schlender and writing partner Rick Tetzeli.
