After working as a newspaper journalist in
Dallas,
Texas, Berger moved back to New York and worked for several years as a magazine editor for
CBS. In 1990, Berger began writing independently and went on to publish a number of pieces in
The New York Times and other publications. He wrote a business column for the
Sunday Times and regularly contributed culture articles to the Arts & Leisure section and
The New York Times Magazine.
GQ,
The Los Angeles Times Magazine,
The New York Times Magazine,
Reader’s Digest, and
Business 2.0 all featured Berger's writing, and he served as a contributing editor at
Wired magazine from 1999 to 2001. Berger pursued his interest in advertising by writing articles for
Ad Age’s Creativity,
Communication Arts,
Graphics, and
Metropolis. In the mid-1990s, he formed an association with
The One Club for Art & Copy, helping them launch the bimonthly publication
ONE, about creativity in advertising, and then in 2007 launching the quarterly
One: Design. In 2001, he wrote his first book, "Advertising Today", published by
Phaidon Press. The book was included on
Barnes & Noble’s best books of the year list and was later included in a list of the “50 all time best books about media” compiled by
The Independent of London. He is the host of the website "AMoreBeautifulQuestion.com." Questioning is the topic of his two most recent books,
The Book of Beautiful Questions (2018) and
A More Beautiful Question (2014), both published by
Bloomsbury. ==Bibliography==
