This session will look at four of the most brilliant minds of recent world history – Henry Ford, Frank Lloyd Wright, William Shockley, and Steve Jobs. There is scant disagreement that these men changed not only millions of lives of their time but of present and future lives in small ways and large. We will closely examine what shaped them to become brilliant innovators, strategists, politicians, and ultimately, salesmen while failing significantly and tragically as husbands, fathers, and in Ford's case, a patriot. Sessions: 4 *No class: 6/19 (Closed for Juneteenth)
