NEW YORK, NY, January 23, 2026 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Douglas, the newly released autobiography by inventor, entrepreneur, and philanthropist Douglas C. Greene, offers an unfiltered look into more than 50 years of innovation, bold decision-making, and world-changing ideas. Known for pioneering the SKYTECH remote control systems for gas fireplaces, now sold across North America and Europe, Greene's story is a masterclass in turning risk into opportunity.

From his early years in corporate management at Sears, Roebuck & Co. to transforming a struggling $2 million operation into a thriving $20 million enterprise, Greene's journey reflects both grit and brilliance. His ventures span diverse industries, including infrared pain-relief therapy, skin-rejuvenation technology, water-heater automation, and even large-scale lava rock exportation.

In Douglas, readers gain rare insight into the mindset of a true visionary—someone who refuses to accept limitations and instead asks, "How can this be done better?" Greene's inborn ability to recognize problems, develop solutions, and seize opportunities has shaped a career defined by innovation and service.

"Risk is the price you pay for opportunity," Greene writes—a theme woven throughout every chapter. The book is rich with personal stories, industry disruptions, global sourcing experiences, and lessons earned through decades of taking bold, often unconventional action.

Greene is also recognized for his deep commitment to education and community impact. He and his wife have funded more than 60 scholarships and are now establishing Skilled Trades Centers in Washington to bring vocational training back into high schools.

"Douglas offers more than a business memoir—it's a roadmap for aspiring entrepreneurs," said [Publisher/Spokesperson]. "Greene's life reminds us that every opportunity begins with a bold decision."

Douglas is available now in print and digital formats.
