Best Answer

There are two people who could take credit for founding Pixar. Steve Jobs and George Lucas.

  • Pixar originally started out as the Computer Division of Lucasfilm Ltd. (owned by George Lucas). They made one computer animated short film that everyone liked, except George Lucas.
  • Steve Jobs bought the Computer Division of Lucasfilm in the 1980s. He made them an independent company and they started to sell a computer called the Pixar Image Computer.

For more about Pixar, I highly recommend The Pixar Touch by David A. Price.
