Welcome to the world of Gary Green.

Colorful, intense, successful, controversial, and diverse; it is a world of business, literature, music, gaming...and adventure.

Though today he is most often identified as one of the country's leading casino executives (or still as the ultimate gambler to some — especially since his appearance in the World Series of Poker last year and his latest book giving a casino boss's inside secrets to players), he was once known as one of America's most intense folk singers, civil rights and union organizers and advocate of Native American rights. Then he was an award-winning journalist. Then a pioneer of the dot-com era. No matter where you come from, entering Gary Green's world is an entire adventure to most.

Businessman, Gambler, Adventurer, with a background more colorful than most of the casino glitter houses that he builds and runs, even in his mid-30s more than two decades ago Gary Green was already being called a legend.

As a journalist, he had twice been nominated for the Pulitzer Prize...before the age of thirty.

As a songwriter, his three record albums, recorded on legendary Folkways Records were part of the Smithsonian's permanent American Folklife collection.

As a labor union leader, he was one of the masterminds of the single largest organizing drive in American history.

And as a propagandist, his skills had been tapped by members of Congress, presidential candidates, governments, and Fortune 500 corporations.

By the time he was 40 he had become a walking compendium of vast and varied experiences that included:

       Published a 250,000-circulation magazine;

       Written a best-selling travel guide;

        and co-owned a Russian Circus:

Elements of the former Moscow Circus made up the EuroCircus in Myrtle Beach South Carolina in the 1990s following the end of the Soviet Union and the creation of the Russian State.

The three-tent complex that made up Gary Green's Euro Circus at its permanent home in south Carolina.
Gary' good friend 'Gratchik' "the world's most famous clown" who became the leading attraction at Gary's Circus project. From Armenia, Gratchik spoke less English than Gary spoke Russian.

By his mid-40s he had become a genuine pioneer of the Internet e-commerce business and technology and had won a place as a finalist for the Best of COMDEX (the international high-tech expo) twice.  He had architected the framework for the most powerful e-commerce package on the Internet, was a genuine pioneer of web technology with had a late 1990s client list that included:

and many others (see www.e-shortcut.com)

Into the 21st century and at 50 he spent his time fine-tuning and redefining the marketing and technology processes for the casino gaming world...bringing them (kicking and screaming at times) into modern corporate competitive business models drawing from traditional catalog and direct marketing  transition to e-business. (See www.GaryGreenGaming.com or www.LogicComps.com) One writer called him "the Donald Trump of Indian Casinos" while another called him "Magic Man".

Still on the lecture and public-speaking circuit he has moved from technology trade shows to the casino gaming industry trade shows (Global Gaming Expo and Southern Gaming Summit in 2005).

Creating new companies, writing, playing guitar, lecturing, pitching technology solutions, defining marketing for the gaming industry, and giving propaganda and startup advice, Gary Green lives in South Florida but splits his time between his Florida office, his Las Vegas office, and occasionally New York City, Southern California, Oklahoma...and where ever the next adventure leads him.
