Scott Forstall among many former Steve Jobs-era Apple execs at Apple Park this week

One year after becoming Apple CEO in 2011, Tim Cook made waves by firing Scott Forstall, a top lieutenant to the late Steve Jobs.

Thirteen years later, Forstall and several other former Steve Jobs-era Apple executives were spotted at Apple Park.

Apple’s 50th anniversary celebration brought out some of the most consequential key players from Apple’s pre-CEO Tim Cook timeline.

A post on Threads by Jobs advisor Mike Slade includes awesome snapshots of attendees including Scott Forstall, Jon Rubinstein, Ron Johnson, and Bertrand Serlet.

Serlet left Apple in 2011 with Mac software engineering going to Craig Federighi, who now oversees all software.

Johnson was a key Jobs partner in establishing Apple retail stores. He left in 2011 and briefly became CEO of JCPenney before dabbling in other projects.

Rubinstein was instrumental in developing the iMac and iPod before leaving in 2006.

All these years later, it’s wonderful to see so many familiar faces celebrating Apple’s 50th anniversary at Apple Park.

Nothing like a Paul McCartney performance to bring everyone together.
