description: "Benjamin \"Bugsy\" Siegel was an American mobster who was a driving force behind the development of the Las Vegas Strip. Along with his childhood friend and fellow gangster Meyer Lansky, Siegel was influential within the Jewish-American mob, the Italian-American Mafia, and the largely Italian-Jewish coalition known as the National Crime Syndicate. Described as \"handsome\" and \"charismatic,\" Siegel became one of the first front-page celebrity gangsters."
