In the mid-’90s, personal computing/tech journalist Bob Cringely was making a television series recounting the invention of the personal computer.
It was called “Triumph of the Nerds.” One of the geeks he interviewed was Steve Jobs, who died last month. It had been 10 years since the co-founder of Apple was ousted from the company he started with Steve Wozniak.
Jobs returned to Apple in 1997, and the rest is iHistory.
The hour-long exchange between Cringely and Jobs has been repurposed as a special event. “Steve Jobs — The Lost Interview” screens at the Esquire Theatre, East Sixth Avenue and Downing Street, at 7:15 p.m. and 9 p.m. Wednesday and 7:15 p.m. Thursday.
