Part 1: Growing up in Brooklyn

Born and raised in Brooklyn, New York, with her parents and twin siblings, Dr. Maxine Greene, a self-proclaimed existentialist, is "always becoming." After graduating from Barnard College and New York University, Greene began pursuing additional philosophy courses due to convenient scheduling that allowed her to both attend class and transport her young daughter to school each day. Fascinated by existentialism at a time when other philosophers ascribed to analytic and logical philosophies, Greene developed her interest in literature as an art form. Watch this clip to learn more about Greene's view of the critical role of schools in communicating to children the excitement of imagination and her lifelong commitment to "wide-awakeness."
