Dick, an agent in real estate. [1][2Allen is the third oldest of six children. Allen is the older brother of two, two younger brothers, and one younger sister. In November 1964 Allen's father was killed in a crash. A year later Allen's mother was married to her high school sweetheart. She was an executive in the business world[2].] After that Allen moved to Birmingham, Michigan with her six children. There, she met her husband, along with their three kids. 4 Allen says that the move resulted in him going from "being in a cool group at one school to being at the bottom of the social hierarchy of another]. "Allen was a student at Seaholm High School in Birmingham where he took music and theater classes (resulting in his love of piano in the classical genre). After graduating from Central Michigan University, he transferred to Western Michigan University in 1974. In Western Michigan, Allen worked on the radio station for students, WIDR. He earned a Bachelor's of Science in Communications in 1976, with a specialization in production for television and a split minor.
