There was not one specific emperor who admired the Greeks. The Roman elites were already deeply influenced by the Greeks came to look up to them during the Republic; that is, even before the beginning of rule by emperors. Roman education was based on Greek models. Elite people received an education in both Latin and Greek and spoke Greek fluently. The pinnacle of education for elite men was a stay in Greece to learn Greek philosophy. Rome had Greek libraries as well as Latin ones. Some educated Romans adopted the Stoic and the Epicurean schools of Greek philosophy. Roman art became Greco-Roman art because it was influenced by Greek art. The Romans absorbed substantial parts of Greek mythology and Roman goods became linked to Greek gods. They also adopted the divination books of the Sibyls, who were Greek oracles (already during the Republican period).
