Fortune 500 CEOs: Like father, like son

Loews Corporation -- not to be confused with the movie theatres, though there once was a connection -- is the massive holding company run by James Tisch, who inherited the CEO reins from his father, Laurence Tisch.

Laurence purchased a portion of Loew's theatres with his brother Robert back in 1959, and the two eventually went on to expand the brand to other businesses. Now the theatres that still bear their family's name are separately owned and operated.

Though James is CEO, the rest of the top dogs are all Tisch men as well: Andrew and Jonathan Tisch are co-Chairmen of the Board.
