He co-founded The Store in Amagansett, a gourmet take-out shop on Long Island, New York, in the Summer of 1966, with his then partner, Denis Vaughan and three friends, Jacqueline Allison a fashion illustrator, Ralph Rofheart an art director and advertising executive and his wife, Martha Rofheart a former actress.

His books include Greene on Greens, Honest American Fare, and The Grains Cookbook, all of which won the Tastemaker's Award.
