The Chair of California's Joint Committee on the Arts, Senator Curren D. Price, Jr, has released the following statement regarding Steve Jobs' passing:  “As we celebrate the 11th Annual California Arts Day this Friday, I invite you to celebrate the legacy of a truly inspiring man, Steve Jobs. A Californian who transformed an entire industry and our lives by his pure genius, innovation and creativity.  I join the world in sending my heartfelt sympathies to his cherished family, his wife Laurene and their children. With charisma and genius to spare, he left a last legacy and a very high bar for those who follow in his footsteps.”
