Crosson recovering from surgery

Matt Crosson, who left the Long Island Association in March to become president of the Las Vegas Chamber of Commerce, is recovering from emergency heart surgery there last week, a chamber spokeswoman said.

Crosson, who led the LIA for 16 years, said he wasn’t feeling well late Thursday night and went to the hospital, said spokeswoman Cara Roberts. He underwent open heart surgery.

“He’s doing really, really well,” Roberts said on Wednesday, quipping, “He’s already on the BlackBerry.” She added he seemed to be in good spirits and his prognosis was good.
