Weiner and Savage have been married for over five decades now. They met in the late 1960s and dated for some time before tying the knot in 1967. At the time Savage worked for famed psychedelic drug advocate Timothy Leary. He served as the keeper of the stone gatehouse on the Hitchcock Cattle Company estate in Millbrook, New York.
