He and his older brother Patrick were raised by a single mother in New York City. Their mother, Mary, died in 1984 at age 89.

In 1983, he returned to Cardinal Hayes High School for the school's first Hall of Fame dinner-dance, and it was to honor Msgr. Stanislaus P. Jablonski. Jablonsik was the priest who told him that "maybe he should attend another school." (He did briefly and returned.) Although they were adversaries as Pricinple/Student they had a sense of respect for each other.

Worked with Jack Burns on Los Angeles' KNX-AM in the morning as the Wright Brothers.

Worked as a Disc Jockey at KJOE-AM Shreveport, Louisiana.

Close friends with Joe Pesci and said he "prayed to him instead of God".

According to George Carlin's posthumously released autobiography "Last Words", he was planning to release a comedy concert movie called 'The Illustrated George Carlin' in the late 1970s, around the same time as Richard Pryor: Live in Concert (1979). He had part of his second comedy concert, On Location: George Carlin at Phoenix (1978) (TV), recorded on film and had planned animated segments and live-action reenactments of his bits (these animated segments would later wind up in his 1984 HBO concert George Carlin: Carlin on Campus (1984) (TV). The project went as far as pre-production and casting for the live-action segments, but was abandoned when Carlin ran out of money. He said he didn't regret it since the material wasn't up to his usual best and said it was part of his "micro-world" of stand-up.
