A graduate of the University of Michigan, Allen is a partner with his cousin Peter M. Brant in the privately owned newsprint company, Brant-Allen Industries, Inc. He served as vice chairman and president of the company.

Allen married 19 year old Barbara Tanner, in the early 1970s.[1] He bought her a 25 percent stake of Andy Warhol's Interview magazine, so she would have something to do. Fran Liebowitz, who was then an associate of Warhol, said the marriage was over as soon as Barbara joined the Warhol entourage.
