The following collage is from an article by Steven Levy that appeared in the February 1994 issue of Popular Science, commemerating the Macintosh's tenth birthday. It's based on pictures taken by Norman Seiff for Rolling Stone Magazine in January 1984. Featuring Andy Hertzfeld, Bill Atkinson, Burrell Smith, Steve Jobs and Susan Kare, with Jef Raskin in the center.
Here's the software team, photographed for Rolling Stone in January 1984, demonstrating teamwork in a human pyramid. On top: Rony Sebok, Susan Kare. Middle row: Andy Hertzfeld, Bill Atkinson, Owen Densmore. Bottom row: Jerome Coonen, Bruce Horn, Steve Capps, Larry Kenyon. In front: Donn Denman, Tracy Kenyon, Patti Kenyon
