Steve Wynn is recognized among Jewish contributors to Economics & Business — Casino developer who reinvented Las Vegas as a resort destination — the Mirage, Bellagio, Wynn; resigned in 2018 amid sexual-misconduct allegations, which he denies.
Born Stephen Alan Weinberg to a Jewish family in New Haven, Steve Wynn took over his late father's bingo halls and remade Las Vegas three times: the Golden Nugget restored its glamour, The Mirage (1989) invented the modern mega-resort — volcano, white tigers — and the Bellagio (1998) gave the Strip fine art and dancing fountains; Wynn and Encore followed in Las Vegas and Macau. The honest record: in 2018, dozens of allegations of sexual misconduct toward employees, reported by the Wall Street Journal, forced his resignation from Wynn Resorts and from the RNC finance chair; regulators fined the company, and in 2023 he agreed to pay $10 million and step away from Nevada's gaming industry — denying the allegations throughout. This fiche thanks the builder of modern Las Vegas, and states the rest in plain words.
