Business Dealings
Upon his death, the Greenspun family entered the Sun into a joint operating agreement with the Las Vegas Review-Journal. The Sun operated as an afternoon daily from 1990 on. Beginning in October 2005, under an amended joint operating agreement, the paper began delivery with the morning Review-Journal.
Greenspun formed The Greenspun Corporation to manage the family's assets.
Greenspun was also heavily involved in real estate, acquiring most of the western portion of Henderson, Nevada for a development that would eventually become Green Valley. Much of the original seed money for this real estate investment was acquired through a loan from the Teamsters Union. His family still controls the majority of this land and the associated real estate developments, including golf courses and the Green Valley Ranch, Resort and Spa with interest being held through The Greenspun Corporation. There is a school located in Henderson, Nevada dedicated to Hank and Barbara Greenspun.
Greenpsun also started the first TV station in Nevada, KLAS-TV.
In 2008 SgpMedia produced the feature documentary about the life and times of Hank Greenspun, narrated by Anthony Hopkins.
