Eve Greene was an American screenwriter and TV writer active primarily during the 1930s through the 1950s.
She grew up in Champaign, Illinois, and dreamed of being a Hollywood writer. She attended the University of Illinois and then moved to Los Angeles, where she got a job as a secretary at MGM and was mentored by Charles Brabin. She'd later be promoted to script clerk.[1][2][3]
She credited Zelda Sears for helping her learn the ropes in the industry. At MGM, under Sears's tutelage, she wrote a few Marie Dressler vehicles before moving on to Paramount and then to freelance at various Hollywood studios.[4]
Her sister, Babette Greene, was executive secretary of the Screen Writers Guild.
