Dan Greenberg is an American politician and a Republican member of the Arkansas House of Representatives. Greenberg, who lives in Little Rock, Arkansas, represents legislative district 31 in Arkansas, which includes portions of Pulaski County and Saline County.

When he was first elected in June 2006, at the age of 40, he had already served most of two terms as a county legislator on Pulaski County's Quorum Court.

Greenberg serves on the Public Transportation and State Agencies committees. He is the vice-chairman of the State Agencies subcommittee on Constitutional Issues.

Greenberg's career history is more academically oriented than the average public official's. He has written and published over 100 articles on government and public policy in newspapers, magazines, and academic journals, including the New York Times, National Review, the Monist, and the Ohio State Law Journal.

He has been an analyst for the conservative Heritage Foundation, a writer for the libertarian Cato Institute, and a teacher at the high school and college level in the fields of philosophy, political science, and computer programming.

Greenberg was named to Arkansas Business' "40 under 40" list of leaders in business and government during the time he served as policy director for the former governor of Arkansas, Mike Huckabee. He runs his own communications firm, teaches at the Arkansas Governor's School for the Gifted and Talented, and is senior editor of the academic journal Critical Review. He is married to Marjorie and is the father of two children, Jacob and Robert.

Greenberg received a B.A. (honors) in philosophy from Brown University, an M.A. in philosophy from Bowling Green State University, and a J.D. from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock School of Law. While a law student, he served as chief Articles Editor of the Law Review. He also studied law for a year at the University of Chicago.

When Greenberg ran for the state legislature in 2006, he was endorsed by his own state legislator, Jeremy Hutchinson, who was prohibited by term limits for running for reelection. Greenberg and Hutchinson had run against each other for the seat in 1999 as primary opponents, an election which Hutchinson won. In May and June of 2006, Greenberg placed first in the district's hotly-contested primary and runoff and was elected to succeed Jeremy Hutchinson in the legislative seat for which the two had once competed.
