Meet nerds who showed jocks listening to teachers can equal big money and success.

In this issue of Utah Stories we explore some of the greatest professors that have come from the University of Utah and some of their incredible students who went on to start companies or become very successful in their own right. Learn how Adobe and Pixar were founded by University Utah graduates who listened to their teachers Ivan Sutherland and David Evans. Also, learn about two of Utah’s greatest artists Alvin Gittins and Randall Lake.

Find a free copy at the Green Pig in downtown Salt Lake City (throughout September 2011) and also  nearly 700 other locations). Or buy a copy online, for just $4.00. (shipping included).

Nerds that found revenge in success!

I am a story teller and journalist. I have a passion for farmers, local craftspeople, and folks who aspire to create, build and grow their business in the local marketplace. Why local? By supporting locally-owned businesses we create more opportunity for entrepreneurs, and we claim our sovereignty to shape our communities how we want to see them. I aspire to build Utah Stories Magazine into a household Utah name, and assist Utah businesses and makers with marketing. On the journalism side of things my passion is investigative journalism that offers true insight into issues. I believe strongly in the forth estate: strong, meaningful, insightful journalism is essential to a free market Democracy.
