Tim Cook, the Alabama native who led Apple for nearly 15 years, announced Monday that he is stepping down as CEO, prompting Gov. Kay Ivey to honor the Mobile-born executive she called “an Alabamian through and through.
Here in Alabama, we will always be proud of Tim Cook! He is an Alabamian through and through — born in Mobile and a graduate of Auburn University. I wish @tim_cook continued success and am grateful for all he has done and will continue to do for our state. https://t.co/JXUGk5bJmS
