The Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs will host a Director's Lunch with NPR's Morning Programming Host and Correspondent, David Greene, in the Belfer Center Library (L369).
For the past two years Greene has been NPR's Moscow correspondent, covering the countries of Eastern Europe and Russia from the Baltics to the Pacific. During that time he brought listeners stories as wide ranging as Chernobyl 25 years later and Beatles-singing Russian babushkas. He delivers a seldom seen view of Russia from beyond the Kremlin and Moscow, having finished his assignment by crossing Russia on the Trans-Siberian railroad.
Greene's voice became familiar to NPR listeners during his four years covering the White House. In 2008, Greene was given the White House Correspondents Association Merriman Smith award for his coverage of the presidency. During the uprising in Libya last year, Greene took time away from Moscow to spend a month in Libya reporting as NATO bombs fell on Tripoli. For that coverage he was honored with the 2011 Daniel Schorr Journalism Prize.
David Greene graduated magna cum laude from Harvard in 1998, where among other achievements he was the senior editor on the Harvard Crimson.
