    Green recorded three folk-music albums from 1977 to 1982 with Folkways Records, which worked with other folk artists including Woody Guthrie and Pete Seeger.[3][8][9] Folkways was later acquired by the Smithsonian Institution as part of the "Smithsonian Folkways" exhibition.[8]

    Green also composed music for the crime drama film Fort Apache, The Bronx (1981).[5] The film, starring Paul Newman and Ed Asner, is about life in New York City's South Bronx from the point of view of a police officer.

    Media[edit]

    In the 1970s, Green was a journalist for The Gaston Gazette, a newspaper in Gastonia, North Carolina, which was later purchased by Halifax Media Group.[3][10] He earned two Pulitzer Prize nominations for his writing.[9]

    In 2010, he wrote Marketing Donald Trump, a guide explaining how Green marketed Trump which can be applied to other marketing applications. In 2012, he wrote Gambling Man, which details Green's life as a modern-day casino boss through personal anecdotes.[3][4][11]

    Other activities[edit]

    In the early 1990s, Green purchased part of a Russian circus. He established it as a Euro Circus attraction at Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.[12][13] After he sold the circus, he joined Smith-Gardner, a Florida catalog software company. At Smith-Gardner, Green aided in development of software to take orders online when the company changed their focus from telephone and mail orders.[12]
