Hank Greenspun was a "Zelig" involved in many important US and world events. This documentary, narrated by Anthony Hopkins and featuring comments by various notable figures, is a tribute to Greenspun's many accomplishments and adventures. He was publisher of "The Las Vegas Sun", through which he confronted Sen. McCarthy, exposed governmental corruption in Nevada and organized crime control over major casinos, and fought against racial segregation. This "renaissance man" also smuggled weapons to the newly-formed State of Israel and—believe it or not—was the initial target of the Watergate burglars.

Following the film, hear from Scott Goldstein, two-time Emmy Award/Golden Globe winning, producer, writer and director, who produced and directed this film, narrated by Anthony Hopkins. Scott's major credits include "LA Law", "Doogie Howser, MD", NBC's TODAY Show, and more. Aside from "Hank Greenspun", another highly acclaimed documentary work includes the Emmy nominated television special "The Last Deadline: The Death of Chicago Daily News". He also created the core multi-media exhibits at the Museum of Tolerance and the New York Tolerance Center.
