Richard Fields is a horse enthusiast, rancher and developer of
resort properties, entertainment venues, and casino gaming
facilities. He became the principal owner of Suffolk Downs in 2007.
Built in 1935 by 3,000 workers in just 62 days, the historic
racetrack is celebrating its 75th anniversary this year. Prior to
acquiring his interest in Suffolk Downs, Mr. Fields co-developed the
Seminole Hard Rock Casino and Hotel with locations in Tampa and
Hollywood, Florida. The casino resorts, which opened in early 2004,
are among the most successful in North America. In December 2005,
Mr. Fields established the Fields Family Foundation, a non-profit
organization that provides ongoing support and resources to a
variety of charitable organizations. The foundation primarily
focuses on the needs of children, medical research, law enforcement,
and agricultural needs throughout the United States. A devoted
rancher and conservationist, Mr. Fields actively supports the
American Quarter Horse Association through the AQHA Youth Assistance
Program and serves on the Board of Farm Aid.
