Second Park Place casino chief resigns
Friday, Feb. 2, 2001 | 2:38 a.m.
Park Place Entertainment Corp. said Dean Harrold has resigned as president of Caesars Palace.
Harrold, a long-time casino executive with Park Place predecessor companies Hilton Hotels Corp. and Bally's Entertainment, took over at Caesars Palace one year ago. He came to the property from the Las Vegas Hilton, where he had served as president.
Park Place Co-Chief Operating Officer Mark Dodson said no replacement has yet been named for Harrold, though a search both inside and outside the company will commence immediately.
Park Place did not say why Harrold resigned. Harrold couldn't be reached for comment.
Harrold is the second high-level Park Place executive to depart the company following the Oct. 19 death of former Chief Executive Arthur Goldberg. Paul Pusateri, former president of Bally's/Paris Las Vegas, resigned Oct. 25.
