Before the lecture, he presented his submission
to get registered as a volunteer for the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games.
He recalled the splendid days in the Olympic history through documentary
films and informed attendees of the preparatory work that Beijing is doing for
the 29th Olympiad, raising students' interest in the Olympic Movement.
As his 80th birthday was only four days away on Sept. 18, Greenspan was
particularly happy when the students presented him bunches of flowers and a
birthday cake.
Bud Greenspan is the world-renowned writer, producer and director of sports
films, and one of the world's leading sports historians. He won the Emmy Award
several times and a Peabody Award, America's highest honor paid to film and
television producers.
