About
Jerome Weiner, commonly referred to as Jerry, was the brother of Michael Alan Weiner, better known by his professional name Michael Savage, a prominent American conservative radio host, author, and political commentator. The Weiner brothers grew up together in a Jewish family in the Bronx, New York, where their parents owned an appliance store; this family background is well-documented in Michael Savage's public accounts of his life. Little detailed public information exists about Jerome Weiner's personal or professional life, as he was not a public figure and predates widespread digital records. He has been described by his brother in interviews and writings as a close sibling whose life and death profoundly influenced Savage's worldview. Jerome Weiner passed away from cancer, an event Michael Savage has frequently cited as a pivotal personal tragedy, though exact dates and further details such as age at death are not publicly verified in major sources.
