Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, Jawed Karim, Max Levchin, Reid Hoffman... recognize any of these names? In 2007, Fortune Magazine published an article along with a very eye-catching photo montage about the PayPal Mafia. Turns out they all have many things in common: from their beginnings to their work values. Today they're some of the most successful people in the tech business.
But, who were they? Why and how are they so important? Do they really run Silicon Valley?
