Binding grid to collection of base type

[Justin Lee]

I have an issue similar to this post:
http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/silverlight/gridview/binding-itemssource-to-observablecollection-lt-baseclass-gt-causes-exception.aspx

Basically, I have base class, and 3 classes the inherit from the base class.  I bind the grid to a collection of items that is a mix of the inherited classes.  The grid is set up to only displays properties from the base class, however after binding, the columns do not display any data.  (and grouping by a column of the base class throws an error.

Below is a simplified version of what I am trying to do.  Is there anything I can do to get it to work?  I'm using version 2011.1.620.1040.
Thanks.

public class BaseClass
{
   public string Name { get; protected set; }
}

public class InheritedClass1 : BaseClass
{
  public InheritedClass1()
  {
    this.Name = "Class 1";
  }
}

public class InheritedClass2 : BaseClass
{
  public InheritedClass2()
  {
    this.Name = "Class 2";
  }
}

void MainPage_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
  List<BaseClass> list = new List<BaseClass>();
  list.Add(new InheritedClass1());
  list.Add(new InheritedClass1());
  list.Add(new InheritedClass2());
  list.Add(new InheritedClass2());

  gridView1.ItemsSource = list;
}

<telerik:RadGridView Name="gridView1" AutoGenerateColumns="False">
  <telerik:RadGridView.Columns>
    <telerik:GridViewDataColumn DataMemberBinding="{Binding Name}" />
  </telerik:RadGridView.Columns>
</telerik:RadGridView>
