American actor, acrobat and stuntman who worked on a handful of Harold Lloyd films from 1919 to 1921. He and his vaudeville partner, fellow Ohioan Jack English (1896-1969), were touted in some notices as Berg & English, "for three years the authentic screen doubles of Harold Lloyd and Snub Pollard." (Berg's involvement with Roach is at least confirmed.)
