Susan Wojcicki is recognized among Jewish contributors to Economics & Business — Google's employee 16 — it was founded in her garage — and CEO of YouTube (2014-2023).
Daughter of Esther Wojcicki, whose parents were Russian Jewish immigrants — the Jewish line runs through her mother — Susan Wojcicki rented her Menlo Park garage in 1998 to two Stanford students named Larry and Sergey: Google was founded in it, and she became employee 16. She built its advertising engine — AdSense grew under her — championed the purchase of YouTube, and ran it as CEO from 2014 to 2023, steering the world's largest video platform. She died in 2024; the garage is a landmark of technological history.
