• Andy Grove, former CEO of Intel, was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 1995 and wrote an essay about his experience. His typical workday included a hospital appointment at 7:30 a.m., then straight to work, an hour-long nap at 4 p.m., then work from home the rest of the day.
• Robert Benmosche left retirement to lead AIG out of the financial crisis in 2009 and was diagnosed with lung cancer in 2010.
