Join GCPL in celebration of National Cancer Survivor Month. Bonnie Addario, will discuss her book "The Living Room: A Lung Cancer Community of Courage".
Before her diagnosis with stage 3B lung cancer 17 years ago, Bonnie Addario led one of the largest privately-held oil companies in the United States.
She was the first woman elected to the California Independent Oil Marketers Association. After her diagnosis, Addario realized she would have to depend on others if she were to survive. Her experience helped her recognize the need for education, empowerment, advocacy, and research to help patients and families. So, Addario and her family founded the Bonnie J. Addario Lung Cancer Foundation (ALCF) in 2006.
In 2019, ALCF and the Lung Cancer Alliance merged, forming GO2 Foundation for Lung Cancer. As co-founder, board chair, and patient advocate for the largest lung cancer organization in the United States, Addario acts as an adviser to industry leaders, clinicians, and policymakers and is a member of the Personalized Medicine Coalition board. In 2020, she received the Lifetime Achievement Award from CURE Magazine.
