Small Fry: A Memoir
- A story about a famous father and his daughter
A frank, smart and captivating memoir by the daughter of Apple founder Steve Jobs.

Born on a farm and named in a field by her parentsâ€•artist Chrisann Brennan and Steve Jobsâ€•Lisa Brennan-Jobsâ€™s childhood unfolded in a rapidly changing Silicon Valley. When she was young, Lisaâ€™s father was a mythical figure who was rarely present in her life. As she grew older, her father took an interest in her, ushering her into a new world of mansions, vacations, and private schools. His attention was thrilling, but he could also be cold, critical and unpredictable. When her relationship with her mother grew strained in high school, Lisa decided to move in with her father, hoping heâ€™d become the parent sheâ€™d always wanted him to be.

Small Fry is Lisa Brennan-Jobsâ€™s poignant story of childhood and growing up. Scrappy, wise, and funny, young Lisa is an unforgettable guide, marveling at the particular magic of growing up in this family, in this place and time, while grappling with her feelings of illegitimacy and shame. Part portrait of a complex family, part love letter to California in the seventies and eighties, Small Fry is an enthralling story by an insightful new literary voice.
