Andreessen
Born July 9th, 1971, Marc Lowell Andreessen is the co-creator of the first widely distributed web-browser "Mosaic".
He got quite lucky, he was the first person to say yes to Tim Berners-Lee who was looking for a web designer to create a graphical interface for his "World Wide Web". The Mosaic software was the first web-browser to become widely used and it paid off: Andreessen is worth approximately 700 Million dollars.
He also co-founded one of the largest Internet Service Providers in the 1990's and Early 2000's, NetScape. Currently he is on the Board of Directors for companies including HP, Facebook, and eBay.
