AUTOBIOGRAPHY/MEMOIR
COMING TO LAS VEGAS, A true tale of sex, drugs & Sin City in the ‘70s.
Carolyn V. Hamilton arrives in Las Vegas in 1973 to join a circus. When that job doesn’t work out, she opens the new MGM Grand Hotel/Casino as a cocktail waitress. This turns out to be more involved than a nice Lutheran girl from Seattle would think: parties, stealing, sex, drinking and drugs are the main entertainment for a bored crew of casino employees. Some waitresses date culinary union bosses, who have their own high drama of payoffs, fights for control, fire bombings and an 18-day culinary union strike. Each story told in this memoir—of the Martin Scorsese “Casino” era of Las Vegas—is true, and many are humorous as well as outrageous.

MY MIND IS AN OPEN MOUTH
With his outlandish, machine-gun rapid-fire humor, comedian Cork Proctor has been knockin’ ‘em dead for sixty years … literally. From his first attempt at stand-up comedy as a gravedigger entertaining his co-worker to lounges and showrooms around the world — on land and sea — this left-handed, dyslexic, two-time high school dropout has not only seen it all, he tells it all.

His observations are intelligent, his delivery original. He is in command at all times, and like the drums he plays, his mind works in a double paradidle beat. In other words, I like him: Brash, bright, and brilliant!
—Shecky Greene, Comedian
