Her beloved Phryne Fisher series became a successful ABC TV series, Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries, which sold around the world, and later inspired the spin-off series Ms Fisher's Modern Murder Mysteries. She was also the author of the contemporary crime series featuring Corinna Chapman, baker and reluctant investigator.

Alongside her writing, for many years Greenwood continued to advocate in magistrates' courts for the Legal Aid Commission and, in the 2020 Australia Day Honours, was awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia (OAM) for services to literature. She never married nor had children, but lived for many years with an accredited wizard.
