Greenberg was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York.

The department was once headed by T. C. Schneirla, and he soon came under the influence of the approach to psychology that he espoused. The coincidence of his exposure to Kantorian and Schneirlerian (see Lazar, 1978) psychology has been brought to bear in his current intellectual involvement with developmental systems theory...}} In 1983, Greenberg co-founded the Southwestern Comparative Psychology Association (with Michael Domjan, Del Thiessen, and Steve Davis) and the International Society for Comparative Psychology (with Ethel Tobach).{{Cite web |url=http://www.apadivisions.org/division-6/publications/newsletters/neuroscientist/2010/11/historian-column.aspx |title=Comparative Psychology and Ethology |last=Greenberg |first=Gary |date=November 2010 |website=The Behavioral Neuroscientist and Comparative Psychologist |publisher=Society for Behavioral Neuroscience and Comparative Psychology |language=en |access-date=2018-09-23}} After teaching at Wichita State University for 40 years, he retired and moved to Chicago, Illinois.{{Cite web |url=https://www.k-state.edu/psych/alumni/documents/oct.2008psytalk_000.pdf |title=Alumni News |last=Harris |first=Richard |date=October 2008 |website=Psytalk |publisher=Kansas State University|page=8 |access-date=2018-09-23}}
