*** Melonie Johnson is making history as the first Black woman to hold the title of president of an Atlantic City casino, and she’s one of only a small handful of women with such a job nationwide...

Johnson arrived at Borgata a month ago during the virus shutdown from MGM’s National Harbor casino outside Washington, DC, as part of a nationwide management restructuring.

She takes over the dominant casino in Atlantic City. Borgata won nearly $800 million from gamblers last year, more than twice what its nearest competitors did.

Johnson is one of a small number of Black women to run a U.S. casino, with or without the title of president. https://bit.ly/2NIU262
