Born on May 14, 1984, in White Plains, New York, Mark Zuckerberg showed early programming talent, creating software like Synapse in high school. While at Harvard in 2004, he launched Facebook from his dorm room with roommates Eduardo Saverin, Dustin Moskovitz, and Chris Hughes, initially for students before expanding globally. He dropped out of Harvard to move the company to Palo Alto, California, securing funding from Peter Thiel and growing it to billions of users. Facebook went public in 2012 in the largest tech IPO at the time, acquired Instagram and WhatsApp, and rebranded to Meta Platforms in 2021 to focus on the metaverse. Zuckerberg holds a controlling stake, receives a $1 salary, and with wife Priscilla Chan, founded the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative in 2015 for education, science, and social causes. His net worth reached $220 billion by December 2025, making him one of the world's wealthiest.
