She now lives in Oakland. In the 1970s, she joined other artists in the Haight-Ashbury Muralists. From 1972 to 1976 Bergman created labor-themed posters with Jane Nordling for the Working Peoples' Artists collective. She worked on a CETA funded project with other artists to paint murals in the city jail.〔 In 1986, Bergman worked with Juana Alicia, Hector Noel Méndez, Ariella Seidenberg, and Arch Williams to create the mural ''El Amancer'' (''The Dawn'') in a park in Managua, Nicaragua. Bergman and Alicia completed part of the work in the middle of the night, guarded by armed teenagers and "working in spite of the threat of a U.S.-backed Contra attack."〔 Her South Africa-themed photo collage was included in the Syracuse Cultural Workers' 1987 calendar. She worked and lived in the Palestinian city of Ramallah for nine weeks in 1989 with three other Jewish-American women artists and teachers as part of the Break the Silence mural project. The mural they created together is in the Popular Arts Center in Ramallah, Palestine.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.palestineposterproject.org/poster/palestinian-women-nurturing-the-intifada )〕 Bergman's poster ''Tribute to Palestinian Women'' was included in the 1989-1990 traveling exhibition ''In Celebration of the State of Palestine'' and is now part of the digital collection of The Palestine Poster Project Archives.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.palestineposterproject.org/poster/in-celebration-of-the-state-of-palestinela-pena-press-sheet )〕 In 1994 she co-created "The Culture Contains the Seed of Resistance That Blossoms into the Flower of Liberation" with O’Brien Thiele, the last intact mural among the famed Placa murals of Balmy Alley in San Francisco.
