Careers

After working as a newspaper reporter in Dallas, Berger moved back to New York and worked for several years as a magazine editor for CBS.

In 1990, Berger founded his independent writing business, with The New York Times as one of the main outlets for his writing. He writes business columns for the Sunday Times, and also contributes cultural articles regularly to Arts & amp; Recreation section as well as The New York Times Magazine. The feature stories also appear in GQ , The Los Angeles Times Magazine , New York magazine, Reader's Digest, and Business 2.0. He served as editor who contributed to Wired magazine from 1999 to 2001.

Berger pursues his interest in advertising by writing articles for Ad Age Creativity , Communication Art , Graphis , and Metropolis . In the mid-1990s, he formed an association with The One Club for Art & amp; Copy, help them launch the bi-monthly publication ONE, about creativity in advertising, and then in 2007 launches quarterly ONE: DESIGN. In 2001, he wrote the book Today's Ad , published by Phaidon Press. The book is included in Barnes & amp; Noble's best books from this year's list, and then included in the list of "50 books of all time about the media" compiled by The Independent of London.

The Berger Project, FREQUENTLY QUESTIONS: The Power of Investigation to Create Breakthrough Ideas, (Bloomsbury), is an examination of how in-depth questions can lead to innovation and change, and how we can get better at doing it in business life and daily life. For the 250-page book, Berger interviewed leaders at dozens of companies such as Google, Netflix, IDEO, and airbnb, as well as hundreds of entrepreneurs, educators, artists, social activists, and underground claimants about the role of questions in their success..

Berger's interest in question arises from his 2009 book GLIMMER (published by The Penguin Press in the US, Random House in Canada and Europe) exploring how designers think and innovate. Glimmer brings readers behind the scenes to studios such as IDEO, Pentagram, and Smart Design, and schools like the Rhode Island Design School (RISD) and the Stanford Graduate Product Design School (school), and profiles many design thinkers including Marianne Cusato, Dean Kamen, Yves Behar, Brian Collins, Paula Scher, Stefan Sagmeister, Tim Brown, and Bruce Mau, who worked closely with Berger on the project. This book examines, more closely, the ways in which designers approach problems, utilize unique tools and techniques, and ultimately arrive at solutions, and show how non-designers can apply these principles in their daily lives.

Berger is currently in Mount Kisco, New York, with his wife, editor/webmaster.
