Charles "Lucky" Luciano, the organizer of organized crime, was born in Sicily in 1897 and immigrated to the US eight years later, to a world corrupt and out of control. New York City was a town ripe for organized crime and Lucky was the man to head it up. Cool, calculating, and non-prejudiced, he brought together the likes of Meyer Lansky and Bugsy Siegel to destroy two old-world Mob Bosses and begin the era of organized crime domination in the United States.

Lucky headed the first crime syndicate and made the mafia stronger than it had ever been, or ever would be again. Banished from the US, he watched from foreign soils as his creation crumbled under lesser leadership and hard drug dealing. Lucky Luciano would never again see this land and we would never again see a mob leader like Lucky Luciano.
