Mike Stevens was one of Troob's classmates at Harvard. He is described as compulsive, obsessive, and manic-depressive. Stevens had also been an analyst at Kidder Peabody with Troob before entering Harvard Business School, and he was probably the most focused and motivated individual Troob had ever known, and his performance at DLJ was no different. It was not unusual for Stevens to be working on five deals at a time, while others were drowning on one or two. His "dark side" was well-known as well. Given to tirades of temper, he often destroyed telephone handsets. He was perhaps the one individual of all new DLJ associates who was ideally suited for a career in investment banking.
