Celebrating 'Vegas' from 'Goodfellas' & 'Casino' Writer

Before Nicholas Pileggi was a screenwriter, he was a journalist with decades of experience reporting on the New York City mob. His insider knowledge eventually led him to write the books Wiseguy: Life in a Mafia Family and Casino: Love and Honor in Las Vegas, which were adapted into the well-known mobster movies Goodfellas (1990) and Casino (1995), in collaboration with Martin Scorsese. In 2012, Pileggi brought his vision of the mafia to the small screen with the CBS show, Vegas.
