WASHINGTON, D.C. – The American Gaming Association (AGA) announced the Gaming Hall of Fame Class of 2022, honoring three leaders for their noteworthy contributions to the industry:
- Gavin Isaacs, former President and CEO, Scientific Games Corporation and current Chairman, Games Global
- Virginia McDowell, former President and CEO, Isle of Capri Casinos and current Non-Executive Director, Entain and Co-founder, Global Gaming Women
- Michael Rumbolz, former CEO, Everi Holdings and current Executive Chairman of the Board, Everi Holdings
“Gavin, Virginia and Mike have each helped transform the gaming industry in their own significant ways,” said Bill Miller, AGA President and CEO. “From leading casino and manufacturing operations across the country to serving in a multitude of board and advisory roles, their influence has spanned the U.S. and global gaming industry – and we are all better off for it.”
Since 1989, the Gaming Hall of Fame has recognized gaming pioneers and business leaders for their lasting impacts on the industry. The Class of 2022 will be honored during an induction ceremony at the Global Gaming Expo in Las Vegas this October.
“The Gaming Hall of Fame is comprised of individuals that have pushed the industry forward through innovation, leadership and excellence,” said Jim Allen, AGA Chairman of the Board and Hard Rock International Chairman and Seminole Gaming CEO. “This year’s inductees are well-deserving additions to its ranks. I look forward to celebrating their contributions alongside the entire gaming industry at G2E 2022.”

Currently Chairman of Games Global, Isaacs helped form the American gaming landscape by serving as a top executive at several of the country’s largest casino suppliers and leading multiple industry-shaping mergers. He most recently served as President and CEO of Scientific Games (now Light & Wonder), where he oversaw the company’s acquisition of Bally Technologies. Prior to joining Scientific Games, he held positions as CEO of SHFL Entertainment and Executive Vice President and COO of Bally Technologies, facilitating significant revenue growth, global expansion, and improvements to the slot businesses at both companies.
