Thomas Berger (Canadian politician) - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography (284 words)
Berger was the leader of the British Columbia New Democratic Party for most of 1969, prior to David Barrett.
Berger has worked extremely hard to ensure that industrial development on aboriginal people's land resulted in benefits to those indigenous people.
Berger was appointed chair of the Vancouver Election Commission in 2003, and led several public meetings on electoral reform in the early months of 2004.
Thomas Berger Profile - BOOK WORLD (377 words)
Thomas Berger's book-jacket photo has remained the same since the mid-seventies, although it has been ever more tightly cropped, revealing finally not much more than a striking shaved head, penetrating eyes, large nose, and cleft chin--easily the head of a Roman emperor or a professional wrestler.
Appropriately enough, Berger's age (now seventy-nine) is almost impossible to determine from this photo, as it is from his recent novels, which unfailingly reference contemporary phenomena such as the Internet but never limit action, character, themes, or language to topical concerns.
Berger was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, in 1924 and grew up in the nearby community of Lockland, where he attended the same public school from kindergarten through high school.
