unnoticeably light everlight from fruit of the loom. "today" interview. it's been seven years since apple founder steve jobs lost his le to pancreatic cancer. his life has been the subject of films and books. the latest perhaps the most personal, his daughter lisa jobs. we'llalk to her in moment. but first, lisa's complicated relationship with her >> we are calling it iphone. >> steve jobs was the man who inoduced life changing technology to the masses. a tight-lipped tech genius with endless ambition. >> i don't have a daughter named lisa. >> those who have seen the 2015 film steve jobs know job daughter, lisa brennan jobs, as a young girl f despera validation from a father who appeared dismissive.

>> you knew what i was going through and you dn't do ything about it. >> steve jobs was 23 when he met his oldestaughter daysfter she was born to his former girlfriend chris ann brennan. brennan-jobs said her father help name her but for years and despite a dna test proving he was her dad, he denied that. later he repeatedly refused to t confirm tha an early version of anlepple computer cald lisa was named after her. >> nothing was named after anybody. it's a coincidence. >> in her new memoir "small fry" brennan-jobs shares her perspective toife with a father who could be cruel to moments of shared joy on the piano or roller skates. she describes a largely unstable childhood. at 14 she moved in with her father and growing mily, though he had one condition. she could not see her mother for six months. brennan-jobs describ that time as lonely but sprinkled with ing,nts of joy and belo painting a very complicated picture of her relationship with

man she just called steve. lisa brennan-jobs joins us now. again, her memoir is called "small fry." hi, lisa, good morning. >> good morning. >> ther-daughter relationships we know are very complicated. yours kind of is no exception. when i was reading this book, i have to tell you, i felt yours pain little girl. i was thinking it's hard to read parts of it. it must have been so hard to put this on paper. was it? how was that part of it? >> it took a long time. i think it was in some ways cathartic and joyful b to gok and spend time with my young parents. they wer younger than i am now, so it was nice to do that. there is this reallyamous person in the story. but i think in many ways, this coming of age story about a girl growing up in california in th '80s and '90 is also -- it's also aal unive story. i think it's easy to forget,

because there's istraction of this famous person. but we all have complrity in lives. >> i was struck by so much of it. somearf it was to read. i felt there was extreme cruelty in certain y parts ofr life. there was a scene, i'm just thinking of a couple of things, where your mom was on the phone. you were just a little shgirl. was begging your dad for money, le sobbing and begging. you as a little girl walk up and ake the phone from her and said, just give her some money, okay, and hang up the phone. i was thinking about what that little girl feeling in those moments knowing those things. what were you thinking then? what do you remember? >> so i remember -- that actually i talked with my aunt and i also talked with my mother. my aunt was the one that witnessed tha scene. i don't particularly remember in the i talk about book. but i wonder -- but moments like

that. i think i was kind of a tough little scrappy soul. i think sometimes you save things from yourast that you don't quite understand. they are like little boxes and eyou prese them for later when you can unwrap them and try to understand wha they meant. i think this whole book was a way to understand. >> did t little girl like her dad? hate her dad? the little girl that we're describing. because there's another scene in there where your mother says to your dad, hi, we need a house, could you get us a house. he says,yeah, i'l get a house and he gets it for himself. there were oer scenes where i was literally reading it and i was like, ouch, if tha were me, i can't imagine what i would be feeling in the moment. >> what was the first one you said? o about the house or denying paternity, anythe specifics. >> i think some of the stories were reallydifficult. you were asking what the little

girl felt about this man. i imagi -- i remember feeling just profound love and admiration, because he did have -- we did have joyful, tender, dear moments together. he made the decision to come back and geto know me after he hadn't really been around when i was younger. also i must have felt so confused and angry. i bet it was some combination of these things. ,eah. >> tell what was the most loving thing your father ever did for you? >> i think that -- josh, you know, i was going to say coming back to get to know me aft hadn't been around when i was little but i also wanted to say one day he came to a performance that my boyfriend was in a play. it was freezing cold. he didn't have a sweater. only he and i can know how cold that night was. he didn't complain. hehe sat throughhole thing because he knew how important it was to me. >> at the end, he was dying. >> yeah.

>> you were at his bedside. a lot was being made when he said something to you like, you smell like a toil i read that, and i said, what could that have been? cs that ael statement, do you think, or was that his personality? what were you doing there? >> i have to answer your question, which was at the very end, he was so apologetic about the times we had missed together. he kept on saying -- the thing he kept on saying is, owe you one, and i'm so sorry. >> did you forgive him? >> i think not at the time. i felt a little bit paralyzed. >> do you now? do you forgive him now? >> in many ways, yes. i understand him more and understand myself more. but the toilet -- i have to be clear about the toilet phrase. i thinkadhings have been of that. i really did, i explained in the book i was spraying myself with natural "rosewater" that was turning over and over. so even though it wasn't

particularly a nice phrase, it was actually true. it was a true phrase. >> the day your dad passed, what did u lose that day? >> well, that's a personalin i lost the chance to add moreit friendship him, which is what i told him in the book is that i wished that we had had more time together. i think he wished that, too. we dide each other. when we spent time together and we got along, it was kind of great. so i wish there had been more time. ed book.such a complic i just want to read what some members of your family, i guess, weren't so fond of the book. this was written, lisa is part of our family. so it is with great sadness that read her book, which differs dramatically from our memories of those times. the portrayal o steve is not the husband and father we know. >> snk i was tg about it. i've been written about since i was 3ears old.

there was the article in "time" magazine. there have been books and me.ies si so i know it can be really difficult to read about your own li and your own experience, a slice of it, in someone else words. it can be hurtful. when i was thinking about writing this book, id reali that i believe people have the right to tell their own story as honestly and accurately as they can. so in this case, you know, this book iss -- i about so much ther.than my although, of course, it involves my complicated family. it's also a coming of age story about me. if you're going to00 read the pages, have you to you can about emup for also whispering in libraries and adolescent angst and all that. lisa, i know it wasn't easyou to share y story, we appreciate it. the book is called "small fry." you can find more about it on today.com. jon stewart stepping sboot

the fire department. these guys were instrumental in lobbying to get this passed which brought health care to first responders, survivors and ctims. unfortunately we just passed a horrible milestone, which is over 10,000 cancer cases, 9/11 cancer related case john has a park in long island, a really beautiful tribute to the first responders and to others, and he's adding names every year. this year i think 106? >> 163. >> 163. every year we're losing more and more. everybody has been to more funerals tha they know what to do. >> for those who think it's a memory and something fading into the past, you were there. you rushed in w yoe told the air was safe to breathe, andt wasn't. do you think about that now? >> think about it every day. everybody imuthe 9/11 cty

who doesn't have cancer is looking over their shoulder going when am next. the struggle is real, the pain and suffering is real most people think two buildings came down that day and innocent lives were lostse to sss violence but there's so many moves parts since then. tens of thousan of people are paying for the helpncomplete 9/11. i don't think thosees l really change anything, i think we would have gotten sick anyway. weren't given the proper protection. t took 10 years to get a bill passed, another five years to get it renewed. now it's going to expire in 2020. we have another fight with congress to get the healthy compensation act renewed. the bill is going to run out of money. rich, myself, andothers, who are si w, many took to d.c. in previous years who are no longer her like raypfeiffer. i'm going to a sick men and

unprecedented in the general population. >> jon, you were always an advocate on your show. you made us lau but y also made us think. do you miss having that platform every day? ri,o, i think, you know, rk wwo ray pfeiffer, all the guys, sometimes there's a great satisfaction i loved doing the show and i loved being a part of it. there's also a great satisfaction with being with a team, working on something, getting your hands dirty a little bit and really being able to work with people on an individual basis as opposed to sort of shouting into the cameras sometimes and you can feel a ltle helpless. sometimes, you know, when you do it on the ground -- these guys, you know, they are relentless i their advocacy because they have to be. the resistance down washington was astonishing. it was -- they had to walk the halls to get this done, and it

continues to this day. the gestation period for oer diseases like meso, the only thing you can compare it to is afghanistan. what these guys were exposed to stunning. >> i have to go. john, i look at you, it look your eyes and i see a tear. is it because you'r still having to fight? >> i've been to 181 funerals. it's every day. it's not just because the anniversary is coming. so many of my friends who i walk the halls of congress with are dead. it's only going to get worse. you know, people always ask me, the most common question i get, do you think we would have gotten theill passed without jon. i like to think we would have.
