Ex-Sands CFO Henry joins Borders Group

Former Las Vegas Sands Corp. executive Scott Henry has joined bookselling chain Borders Group as chief financial officer.

Henry, 45, had been operating his own financial consulting business since leaving Las Vegas Sands in 2009. He held numerous financial positions with the casino operator during his five years with the company, including CFO.

Prior to joining Las Vegas Sands, Henry spent 17 years as an investment banker on Wall Street.

Henry will still have ties to the gaming industry. He is a member-elect of the pending board of directors for the reconstituted Herbst Gaming.

Borders is based in Ann Arbor, Mich., and the bookseller, which is traded on the New York Stock Exchange, has gone through several management changes since Bennett LeBow invested $25 million in the company in May and became chief executive officer and the largest shareholder.
