'Who's who' in New Jersey Hall of Fame

TRENTON, N.J. — What comes to mind when you think about Yogi Berra, Thomas Edison, Albert Einstein and Toni Morrison ? Did you guess New Jersey?

They all have strong ties to the Garden State, and they're among the first 15 people to be inducted Sunday into New Jersey's Hall of Fame.

The class also includes Frank Sinatra, Bruce Springsteen, Meryl Streep, Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin and retired Gen. Norman Schwarzkopf.
