He specializes in Constitutional Law, Administrative/Regulatory Law, and First Amendment issues, with a focus on Religion and the Law. His career includes clerkships with U.S. Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens and D.C. Circuit Judge Patricia M. Wald.
Greene holds a BA from Yale (magna cum laude, 1982) and a JD from the University of Michigan (summa cum laude, 1986). He has been honored with awards such as the Teacher of the Year (2002) and Fordham OUTLaws' Community Service Award (2007).
His research explores intersections between religious liberty, free speech, and state power. Notable works include analyses of Chevron deference and Supreme Court jurisprudence, often critiquing regulatory agency authority and separation-of-powers issues. Recent commentary addresses current debates over executive power and religious exemptions in public education.
Greene has contributed over 50 scholarly articles, focusing on landmark cases like Masterpiece Cakeshop and Chevron U.S.A. Inc. v. NRDC. His Against Interpretive Obligation (2012) challenges judicial adherence to precedent. He frequently appears in media (Reason, Reuters, NYT) discussing Supreme Court rulings and constitutional crises.
