Henry grew up in Pasadena, California the son of a celebrated architect. Henry Mather Greene, and his brother Charles Sumner Greene (1868-1957), were principals of the firm, Greene & Greene, which pioneered the California bungalow style. Encyclopedia Britannica says the Greene brothers' bungalow style "greatly influenced American domestic architecture." One of their most famous commissions was the Gamble House in Pasadena, constructed in 1908-09.
Henry attended college for four years, then married Ruth Elizabeth Haight (1907–2012) in Sacramento. The couple had at least two daughters, Nancy and Virginia.
The 1940 federal census reported that the couple had lived in Sacramento in 1935, but by 1940 they had moved to Pasadena where Henry work as a traveling representative for an auction house. Ruth was also employed there as a stenographer.
