[edit] GA hold

This seems to be a solid little article. I take it there is not much information available on Berg? Just a few things:

• Princeton sources seem a bit unreliable, especially The Daily Princetonian, which is a student newspaper. These two sources do not have the same kinds of fact-checking that a "real" newspaper does. Are there no other sources that have this information?

• Expand lead - currently it is only a statement of Berg's notability. It needs to be a summary of the article per WP:LEAD (see also WP:BETTER#Lead section for help on writing leads).

• From 1999 to 2003, Berg served on Princeton University's Board of Trustees. - Oddly tacked onto "Lindbergh" section.
