Dean, No Robert did not teach at Berkeley. He was the conductor of the Glee Club and Treble Clef Society choirs many years ago, both non-faculty, student association positions, and it was the fact that he was never hired by the music department that eventually lead to his taking the job as the music critic for the Chronicle. This is old family history, and I'm not sure I remember many of the details, but that's the gist of it.
