Abram lives with his wife, Elise Hauenstein, in a classic two-story Colonial/timber-framed home that he built in Carlisle, Massachusetts. They enjoy cooking and entertaining, visiting art galleries and museums, as well as boating, fishing, and kayaking. His fondness of plaid shirts is well-known and at times parodied, a prime example being the character Al Borland from the 1991-'99 ABC sitcom Home Improvement.
