Despite the fact that Weber had an insane childhood, it didn’t take him long to find a more traditional path in life. In 1986, Weber enrolled as a student at Middlebury College in Vermont, majoring in English and Political Science. He’s also apparently quite the singer, having been a member of the Dissipated Eight, a very popular, all-male a capella group. The group was so good, in fact, that not only did they tour the country, but they even played the White House.
About his close encounter with President Ronald Reagan, Weber says,
“Yeah, I have a picture of myself with him, but I blacked out his face when I was in a stupor at one point.”
So maybe he hadn’t completely left his hippie past behind in England.
This article gives a nice bit of insight into the life of a very private man, and the path he took in order to get where he is today. Perhaps the best part at the entire piece though, is that once again, he can’t resist getting a little dig in to NBC. When talking about Medium’s move to CBS, he had this to say,
“CBS is doing a lot more promotion and put us on the fall schedule, which is much better than starting in mid-season as we did on NBC. Over there, we felt like poor stepchildren. But nothing has changed radically about the story,” Weber says. “She still sees dead people.”
