Sheldon Greene started
young. He was appointed Warden of Insurance of the State of Ohio at age 23. A
public interest lawyer, Greene pursued seminal issues literally decades before
they achieved national attention, such as our flawed health delivery system,
the impact of illegal immigration on the economy, renewable energy, and our
public land policies. Greene was a participant in the first Obama national
policy team for both immigration and energy. He was one of the founders of the
New Israel Fund and helped formulate its unique structure drawing on his
experience as General Counsel of California Rural Legal Assistance. He
is an executive in a wind energy development company and has been actively
engaged in renewable energy for over 25 years. He advocates the formulation of
a God concept derived from the life process, stripped of anachronistic anthropomorphic
characteristics. He has developed personal guidelines for a balanced, seamless
life with spiritual, intellectual, social, and creative dimensions. He is the
author of seven published novels.
