Kate Silver intended to live in Vegas for just a year, but she took to Sin City like a dauber-wielding Bingo buff. She has spent seven years getting to know and often love the city, paying special interest to the offbeat people who call Las Vegas "home." An award-winning journalist and editor at Las Vegas Life magazine, she extols the eccentricities and intricacies of the city. Her adventurous nature and writing experience were assets when she was invited to pen four chapters in this book (on gambling, nightlife, shopping and side trips), in which the R and D required visits to swingers clubs, slot tournaments, and a “top secret” government base. While at Las Vegas Weekly newspaper, Silver won awards from the Nevada Press Association for Outstanding Journalist in 2003 and Journalist of Merit in 2001. Her writing has also appeared in Playboy and People, among other publications.
