Biography of Brian Hugh Warner
Early life:
Brian Hugh Warner, artist name Marilyn Manson was born in Canton, Ohio. He is the only child of Barbra Warner and Hugh Warner. Manson is of German and Polish descent on his father's side, and is the fourth cousin twice removed of Conservative commentator, Pat Buchanan. In his biography The Long Hard Road Out of Hell, he detailed his grandfather's sexual fetishes which led to the forming of Marilyn Manson and the Spooky Kids.
As a child, he attended his mother's Episcopal church, though his father was Catholic. Warner attended Heritage Christian School from first grade to tenth grade. He later transferred to Glenoak High School Canton and graduated from there in 1987, and later became a student at a local art college in 1990. He was working towards a degree in journalism and gaining experience in the field by writing articles for a music magazine, 25th Parallel.
