In ry ‘opinion, Apple Inc. is the number one company in the wort for product design. In the time that "you're reading this article, around 750 iPhone ‘and 300 iPads wil be sold intemationaly. These iconic device generate millons of pounds a day for Apple, and the man behind ther iconic look is known as a ‘design gens. n 2013, Time Magazine isted him as one of the 100 most influential people in the world, but can you name him? if you said Steve Jobs, you'd be wrong, although it was Jobs who first recognised this man's talent. is namo is Jony Wve. Bom in London, Jony Ive studied industrial design at Newcastle: Polytechnic. After graduating, “he helped set up the London design agency Tangerine.

She researched this idea and, in 1967, she wrote an outline for Sesame Street Ganz Cooney presented her ideas to the TV channel she was working for at the time. However, the channel rejected her proposal, saying that they thought she didn't have the right ‘experience to produce a TV programme for chiiren. AS aresul, ‘she set up Children's Television Workshop with a colleaque, and two years later they had managed to raise eight milion dollars to finance production, Even so, many people working in the television industry questioned her abilty to manage such a project. Tis was during the 1960s, when the industry was largely ‘controlled by men, At fist, Ganz Cooney cld't want to fight to keep her role as the director ofthe production company and the producer ofthe programme. However ier husband and a colleague encouraged her to do 80, because they knew the project would fal without her Iwolvement. This meant she became one of the frst female television executives in America, In 1969, two years after her inital research, Sesame Street went ‘on air, and today i's stil going strong, However, Joan Ganz Cooney didn't stop there. She continued to take an intrest in early childhood education, and in 2007, she set up a centre to help improve children's digital iteracy. I really admire the way she has {uiotly got on with helping young children. She's not a household name like Big Bird, but she's had a huge impact on the education of millions of children around the world.
