Virtual Curator Spotlight: Moe Berg: Big League Spy
Morris Berg spent 15 seasons in the big leagues, mostly as a backup catcher with teams struggling to stay out of the American League basement. But Berg’s story remains one of baseball’s most unusual and mysterious tales – and lives on today through books, movies and an exhibit at the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum.
This Curator Spotlight experience will give our virtual visitors the unique opportunity to learn about the creation process behind our Moe Berg: Big League Spy exhibit, featuring a special interview with a Hall of Fame curator.
This program is free, but registration is required.
After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information to join the virtual program.
Moe Berg signed with the Brooklyn Robins as an infielder after graduating from Princeton University magna cum laude with a bachelor’s degree in modern languages in 1923, turning down more prestigious offers in academia and business. “I would rather be a ballplayer than a bank president or a judge,” Berg would explain.
