A Historical Tour of the Mob in America, Including a Stop in Reno!

The history of organized crime in America is loaded with violence, secrets, revenge, corruption and the relentless pursuit of the almighty dollar. It’s no surprise that the Mob is such a popular and endlessly recurring subject for Hollywood. Geoff Schumacher, senior director of content for the Mob Museum in Las Vegas, will hit the highlights of this fascinating history, with familiar names such as Al Capone, Lucky Luciano, Bugsy Siegel and John Gotti making cameos along the way. Organized crime in Reno will be discussed as well.
