01 / THE STORY

The newsroom inheritance

Brian is a son of Sun founders Hank and Barbara Greenspun. His UNLV biography describes a Georgetown education followed by leadership of the newspaper and Greenspun Media Group. [1]

02 / THE STORY

Ownership and civic roles

The archive biography identifies him as sole owner of Greenspun Media Group in its account of the family business. It also records roles connected with UNLV, Brookings and the Museum of Tolerance. Those are dated biographical statements rather than a claim that every appointment remains current. [1]

03 / THE STORY
