The Career Path of a palmOne Executive

Ken Wirt, palmOne, Inc.

Ken Wirt, senior vice president of Worldwide Marketing at palmOne, graduated from the University of Michigan with a degree in the psychology of kinetic media – the evolution of how one media, such as television, turns into another, like computers. He worked for a couple small companies before attending business school at Stanford. He then got into computers at Atari, handheld devices at Apple, and online music at a startup called Riffage.com. Following this, he came to Palm Inc., which is now palmOne.
