For some time, an urban myth circulated that Saviano grew up to be singer
Marilyn Manson, but there is no truth in this.
[1] Saviano himself has addressed the urban legend, stating that in college he received as many as twenty emails a day asking about the subject, and that he considered himself honored that people associated him with a rock star rather than a geek. In fact, Saviano majored in
Political Science at
Yale University where he became president of
Sigma Nu Fraternity. Upon graduation in
1998 he worked for a while as a
paralegal for a
New York City law firm. In
2000 he worked for an Internet firm before entering
Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law in August of the same year. He is admitted to the bar in New York.Saviano is currently an associate with
Morrison Cohen LLP.
