Longtime Las Vegas casino executive Claudine Williams died Wednesday at age 88. She was among the first women to serve in the highest levels of casino management.
Williams and her husband, Shelby Williams, moved to Las Vegas in 1964 and purchased the Silver Slipper on the Strip. They sold the casino to Howard Hughes in 1969, then used the proceeds to build the Holiday Casino, which later became Harrah's.
