Preservation Spotlight: Dr. Michael Green, historian

 

Today's Preservation Spotlight shines on Dr. Michael Green, historian!

We had a great time talking with Dr. Mike about Las Vegas history, especially the Mob!

"But my favorite, I think, is the history of organized crime here.  I am very involved with the National Museum of Organized Crime and Law Enforcement (The Mob Museum), and I have learned a lot working on that.  It’s a fascinating story that takes into account everything from ethnicity to the power of the state (both the nation-state and the state of Nevada).  It’s just a marvelously broad and interesting topic."
