Goldberg met Ivan Reitman in 1966 while studying at McMaster University.

The three were arrested and charged for making and exhibiting an obscene film. Reitman and Goldberg were found guilty, being sentenced to one year of probation and a CA$300 fine.[4]
Goldberg worked together with Reitman for more than 30 years. Their collaborations included Death Weekend (1976), Heavy Metal (1981), Feds (1988), Junior (1994), Space Jam (1996), Private Parts (1997), Commandments (1997), Fathers' Day (1997), Six Days, Seven Nights (1998), Road Trip (2000), Evolution (2001), Killing Me Softly (2002), Old School (2003) and EuroTrip (2004).[1][3]
Goldberg first found success with the 1979 film Meatballs which was directed by Reitman and starred Bill Murray. He co-wrote the film with Len Blum, Janis Allen and Harold Ramis, and was also a producer.[5][6] Goldberg would return to the franchise in 1987 as a writer on Meatballs III: Summer Job.[1] He would again collaborate with Blum and Ramis to co-write the 1981 film Stripes which was directed by Reitman and starred Murray and Ramis, with Goldberg also serving as a producer.[7] Goldberg and Blum co-wrote the film Feds which was also directed by Goldberg.[8]
Goldberg found success with his producing career after the mid-1990s. He served as an executive producer on the animated TV shows Beethoven and Extreme Ghostbusters, and was nominated for an Emmy Award for the 1996 television film The Late Shift on which he served as a co-executive producer.
