# Talk:A. Scott Berg

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.

The phrase "highly anticipated" in the main article seems to be more likely PR flack taken from a book jacket than solid reporting.  Even very positive book reviews rarely use such wording.
Likewise, the comment at the beginning of this discussion that "This seems to be a solid little article" makes one think it might have been placed here by the original Wiki article author or similar person, since it appears not up to Wiki standards for an encyclopedia.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.15.57.109 (talk) 21:16, 14 March 2011 (UTC)

F. Scott Berg is reported to have been "totally stumped" at the revelation that Charles Lindbergh had three secret families with mistresses, as well as the legitimate family he shared with his wife Anne Morrow Lindbergh. Berg stated that he had no clue why this happened, that it did not fit his view of Lindbergh, and that he must simply have decided to have a different kind of life. I think there are clues as to why it happened in Berg's biography LINDBERGH. Anne Morrow Lindbergh's affair with her therapist is discussed on pages 379, 380 and 381. The affair was at its height in 1956. There is no question that it was sexual, since Anne's daughter discovered an unambiguous love letter written by her mother's lover. It is difficult to believe that Lindbergh was unaware of it. His wife was constantly seen at parties, dinners and public events in the company of this man. She even rented a New York apartment to be closer to him. Lindbergh objected to the relationship, but Anne insisted it was just a friendship. Although Lindbergh never called her out for unfaithfulness, he was no fool. It was the next year, 1957, when he began his first affair, with his German interpreter Brigitte. Arguably, he had come to believe that what was sauce for the goose was sauce for the gander.
