Steve Jobs' FBI file cites drug use, distortions

The FBI released a decades-old file it kept on Apple co-founder Steve Jobs that noted his past drug use and cites interviews with people who say he had a penchant to "distort reality."

The 191 pages of FBI records are part of a 1991 background check of Jobs, who died in October 2011, for an appointment by former President George H.W. Bush to the President's Export Council.

The file includes the results of interviews with Jobs and those who knew him. The records reinforce the picture of Jobs that has been known to many followers of his career and Apple. Biographer Walter Isaacson's best-selling book about Jobs, released last year, outlines his use of drugs and mercurial personality. While many people interviewed by the FBI described Jobs favorably, some said he wasn't always truthful.
