Early life
Greenblatt is the son of Hungarian Jewish refugees, and grew up in Queens, New York City.[3] During WWII, his father fled Szatmárcseke in 1941 as a child, while his mother hid in Budapest with her family during the Nazi occupation, and fled to the United States after the Hungarian Revolution in 1956. He is the first cousin, once removed, of anti war activist Robert Greenblatt.
Greenblatt was educated at the Marsha Stern Talmudical Academy,[4] followed by Yeshiva University.[5] In 1992, Greenblatt received a JD degree from the New York University School of Law.[2]
Career
Greenblatt started as real estate lawyer for the New York law firm, Fried, Frank, Harris, Shriver & Jacobson.[4] In the mid-1990s, he started a cappuccino coffee company, with pod machines at Penn Station and the New York City airports, but following the rise of Starbucks, sold his business and returned to practicing law.[4] Greenblatt is the creator of the blog Inspire Conversation, a collection of resources for parents and teens, as well as the author of three travel books, one about a family trip to Israel.
Greenblatt has worked for Trump since 1997,[1] rising to executive vice president and chief legal officer to Trump and the Trump Organization, and his advisor on Israel.[2]
Greenblatt favours a two-state solution, reached by the parties concerned and not imposed from outside by a body such as the United Nations.[4] Greenblatt has stated that “West Bank settlements are not an obstacle to peace”.[6]
In late December 2016, Trump named Greenblatt as his Representative for International Negotiations for his incoming administration.[7]
Personal life
Greenblatt is an Orthodox Jew, and lives in Teaneck, New Jersey, with his wife and six children,[1] the eldest three of which are triplets.[4] His wife, Dr Naomi Greenblatt, is a psychiatrist.[1][3]
