Interesting Facts about Brian Greene
- His father, Alan Greene, a one-time vaudeville performer, later worked as a voice coach and composer.
- Brian R. Greene is one of the world's leading string theorists. A child prodigy in mathematics, he could multiply 30-digit numbers at the age of five. In 6th grade, Greene was so far ahead of his school in math that he had to find a tutor at Columbia University. He entered Harvard in 1980 to major in physics, and with his bachelor's degree, Greene went to Oxford University, in England, as a Rhodes scholar. His book "The Elegant Universe: Superstrings, Hidden Dimensions, and the Quest for the Ultimate Theory" (1999) was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize in nonfiction. He also occasionally enjoys acting, helping John Lithgow with scientific dialogue for the series 3rd Rock from the Sun (1996), and he had a cameo role in the film Frequency (2000).
