[edit]Why is Be True to Your School not in the bibliography? It was required reading in my high school. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.22.126.37 (talk) 15:52, 6 August 2005 (UTC)
Bibliography completed to date: info from Library of Congress database and personal knowledge of books. Full name from Contemporary Authors. - Kalimac, 25 June 2006 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kalimac (talk • contribs) 04:05, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
Disambiguation needed?
[edit]"Bob Greene" is pretty common name. If nothing else, the article should mention that he is NOT the same Bob Greene who co-authored "Make the Connection : Ten Steps to a Better Body and a Better Life" with Oprah Winfrey. 163.192.21.44 23:28, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
I put a note that it is not Oprah's Bob. How do we make a page for Oprah's Bob when they have the same name??? I'm flummoxed!--63.108.45.252 20:12, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
The public library calls the fitness instructor Greene, Bob (Bob W.)--63.108.45.252 20:47, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
It was Bob W. Greene (age 78) the investigative reporter from Newsday who died on April 10, not the Bob Greene who was a reporter for the Chicago Tribune. [1] —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.38.193.176 (talk) 13:51, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
And there's a Bob Green(e) who coauthored or ghosted most of Anita Bryant's books. PS: I remember him being something of a laughing-stock here in Chicago, esp. among members of the local media. 107.77.231.172 (talk) 16:56, 13 January 2018 (UTC)HelenChicago
"Greene did not return to newspaper or magazine journalism."
[edit]Don't think this is true. He still contributes columns to the WSJ opinion section on an occasional but regular basis. They are as schlocky, phony, and sentimentalist as his old work for the Tribune (with which I was depressingly familiar). But in any case he is still contributing on a quasi-regular basis to one of the most prominent national newspapers. Maccb (talk) 02:48, 16 September 2015 (UTC)
