Richardson, Virginia Beckley
Through her oral interview and the materials she provided, Virginia Beckley Richardson
gives us a unique and fascinating look at both a pioneer family of Las Vegas and the early
activities of the Service League, the forerunner of the Junior League of Las Vegas. Her personal
recollections are an insight into life in the city's early years, and the biography of her father
written by her brother, Bruce, humanizes a prominent figure in Las Vegas' history. The
newspaper articles she made available enhance her descriptions of the Service League's activities.
