SCOTT GREENBERG

A CHALLENGE IS AN OPPORTUNITY IN DISGUISE

Scott Greenberg was attending the New York University film school when doctors discovered a softball-sized tumor in his chest.

As a kid, Scott heard his grandparents talk about how they survived the holocaust. He looked to their experiences for lessons in resilience as he began a battle for his own life. Inspired by their strength, Scott went on to beat the cancer, run the Los Angeles Marathon and ultimately become one of the most popular youth speakers in North America.
