This Is Now: Walter Isaacson on "Elon Musk"

SEE EVENT DETAILS
Who is Elon Musk? The brilliant mind behind over 4000 Starlink internet satellites circling Earth. The powerhouse who took the young Tesla car company to a nearly 800-billion-dollar leviathan. The genius who conquered Twitter--the international backbone for news, gossip, and entertainment. But Starlink is plagued by battles over Ukraine's wartime uses. Reuters tracked reported public lies about Tesla's driving range right to the top of the company. Twitter--now "X"--has lost half its ad revenue, and news organizations have shunned it. The company, evicted from its Boulder office, faces legal action over unpaid San Francisco rent. Meanwhile, the boss is worth some $230 billion.

Who, then, is Elon Musk? Acclaimed author Walter Isaacson will tell us in person, bringing his new book, Elon Musk, to SFJAZZ in San Francisco.

Meticulous as ever, Isaacson gets remarkably close to his subject, shadowing him for two years. He tracks Musk's life from bullied, beaten child to the richest man in the world. It's a tale you must hear.

Walter Isaacson's Steve Jobs shot straight to #1 on bestseller lists internationally. He probed the digital revolution's roots in The Innovators; he penned the definitive biography of Leonardo da Vinci. Isaacson's The Code Breaker topped the New York Times bestseller list. We can't wait to welcome him back to the Kepler's community, onstage with Angie Coiro and Elon Musk. (Note: Musk himself is not a speaker at this event.)

Please don't set yourself up for disappointment -- get your tickets immediately!

Masks are required for everyone over the age of 2 years old and must be worn at all times in the venue, and throughout the duration of the event.
