| Weiss started to skate quite late at age nine, after he watched his elder sister skate. His other sister was a World |
| Junior diving champion (and Michael was also a regional diving champion), his father was a member of the 1964 |
| Olympic Gymnastics Team and his mother was a national gymnastics champion. Weiss married his jazz dance |
| coach and now choreographer Lisa Thornton in september 1997 and is a proud father of daughter Annie-Mae |
| (born September 1998) and son Christopher Michael (born October 1999). Weiss was named 1999 Father of the |
| Year by the National Fatherhood Initiative (USA). Weiss has landed quadruple Lutzes in practice. Weiss left |
| long-time coach Audrey Weisinger to train with Laws after Skate America at the end of October 2002. |
