Jenny Greene

Princeton University

Jenny Greene is the Eugene Higgins Professor of Astrophysical Sciences at Princeton University. She studies supermassive black holes and the galaxies that they live in. As an observer, she uses facilities all over the world and in space to find black holes at all masses and redshifts, but also to study the masses, structures, and star formation histories of their hosts. She is also the faculty director of the Princeton Prison Teaching Initiative, and recently was awarded a Presidential award for Science Mentoring from the Biden administration for her work.
