One of the most widely shared titbits about Steve Jobs’ daughter, Eve, comes from Walter Isaacson’s best-selling biography about the Apple co-founder.

In the book, he writes that Eve is a “strong-willed, funny firecracker” who used to call her father’s assistant to make sure she was on his calendar.

Although, Eve has “zero recollection of that” according to a recent interview with Vanity Fair, remembering rather how she doodled all over one of his whiteboards.

It was on those work trips with dad that Eve “subconsciously soak[ed] in all the beauty and gorgeous design”. This made her the “apple that fell closest to the tree,” as the publication put it.

Besides Eve, there are also Reed and Erin, as well as a half-sister named Lisa (who featured in Steve Jobs’ biopic).

Eve may take after her father in more ways than one, but still, there are those that struggle to know where to place her, she observes, adding that “some people get a little taken aback”.

“I’m a little weird,” Jobs said.

The 24-year-old has been known to dabble in a couple of wonderous vocations.

As a world-class equestrian and Stanford graduate, she traded Silicon Valley for New York City in the fall of 2021 after making her runway model debut in Paris.

The self-proclaimed “horse girl” began taking lessons at the age of six and leapt into contention for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.

She had to bow out, though, after the Games were postponed because of COVID-19.

She has since given the horses a rest and settled in as the face of Louis Vuitton.

Jobs discovered that modelling wasn’t so far from the world of showjumping:

“I was more grateful than nervous,” she says.

“I never foresaw modeling, and on a whim, I was like, ‘Why not?’ It drew upon things I knew, igniting the part of me that competing always did.”

All the while, this apple really hasn’t fallen too far from the tree, mentioning how “warm” she feels whenever she sees an Apple product as it reminds her of her dad, whom she lost to cancer when she was 13.

Her sentimentality has extended into a collection of vintage Apple T-shirts.

The shirts, with a one-of-a-kind prototype from the Computer 1 era, likely made by her dad when Apple was still based out of his garage, has a kind of “funny firecracker” slogan.

“Eve had the right idea,” it reads on the front, continuing on the back with: “She picked an Apple.”
