Ten years ago, the Long Island Business News started to single out 40 Under 40--meaning 40 up and coming business movers and shakers under 40 years old.
In the program for this year's event Jan. 24, which also doubled as a supplement to the paper, there was a special category of 11 "old friends" who the editors said were acknowledged in the inaugural 40 Under 40 class and whom they had "lost touch" with. And, the editors added, "our celebration would not be complete if we did not take the time to mention them and wish them well."
Probably the best known of the 11 old friends was Sanjay Kumar, former head of Computer Associates and current resident of federal prison for assorted crimes while head of the software giant.
If you're wondering who the other 10 are, here goes:
Michael Brown
Greg Frisby
Michael Galante
Michael Gencarelli
Pamela Greene
Dean Hartman
Paul Harvey
Michael Reilly
John Sullivan
Avi Telyas
