LDI 2016

Bob grew up right here in Las Vegas; back when they were still doing above ground nuclear testing (is he glowing?). While still in High School he married his wife Linda and started working at Channel 5 on Boulder Highway (a garage they converted into a television station) where he eventually worked his way up to the On-Air Master Control Operator position. Seeking his fame and fortune (mainly fortune) he and Linda set out for Phoenix Arizona where he began working as a Motion Picture Projectionist. Later they would move to a small town in Arizona named Cottonwood where he managed two local theatres. In 1974 it was back to Vegas to start working for the largest production show ever to hit the Las Vegas strip, “Hallelujah Hollywood” at the MGM Grand where he would spend the next 4 years. And thus would begin Bob’s career in theatre. He has worked at just about every theatre on the strip including 3 years at the Lido show at the Stardust as a Spotlight Operator and Relief Front of House Audio, 7 years with Siegfried and Roy at the Frontier Hotel as the Head Electrician and 14 years as the Production Manager for Siegfried and Roy at the Mirage Hotel. Bob joined the O Show in 2004 as the Technical Director and eventually became the Operations Production Manager in 2006. Bob’s favorite pastime is fly fishing. He and Linda have 3 children and seven grandchildren.
