Dan Doctoroff on Living with ALS and Building the Future
Dan Doctoroff had a storied career as Deputy Mayor of New York City during the first two Bloomberg administrations. In six years, Doctoroff helped rebuild the city after 9/11. He later oversaw the terminal and media business at Bloomberg before joining forces with Google on (the now defunct) Sidewalk Labs mission to define the future of cities. These days, he\u2019s taking on a new challenge: ALS, a.k.a Lou Gehrig\u2019s disease. Doctoroff was hit with the neurodegenerative disease in 2021. He speaks candidly about how this challenge has helped him stay present and let go of the future \u2014 except, of course, in the search for a cure.\n\nQuestions? Comments?
