Steven Levy is a senior writer for Wired, the former chief technology correspondent for Newsweek and the author of seven books. Washington Post describes him as “American’s premier technology journalist … a Silicon Valley insider who writes for the rest of us on the outside.” His most recent book, “In The Plex: How Google Thinks, Works, and Shapes Our Lives,” has been a New York Times bestseller and is heralded as the definitive word on the search giant. His first book, “Hackers: Heroes of the Computer Revolution,” was named by the readers of PC Magazine as the best sci-tech book of 20 years and was recently updated for a 25th anniversary edition. A longtime expert on Apple, Levy has written the history of the Macintosh, “Insanely Great,” and The Perfect Thing, about the iPod. Other books include “Crypto,” “Artificial Life,” and “The Unicorn’s Secret.”
