The Life and Times of Hank Greenberg was recently listed as the third best baseball film on Rotten Tomatoes with a Tomatometer score of 97%.
The Life and Times of Hank Greenberg is an Emmy nominated feature length documentary film about an extraordinary baseball player who transcended ethnic and religious prejudice to become a hero for all Americans. Hank Greenberg’s achievements during the “Golden Age of Baseball” in the thirties and forties rivaled those of Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig. As America’s first Jewish baseball star, he helped break down the barriers of discrimination in American sports and society. Greenberg was a beacon of hope to millions of American Jews who faced bigotry during the Depression and World War II.
