60 Minutes to air story on Jerry Newport and Mary Meinel

Airdate: Wednesday, September 29, 2004

Eight years ago, 60 Minutes introduced viewers to Jerry Newport and Mary Meinel, both of whom suffer from Asperger's Syndrome. Mary and Jerry had fallen in love and married after meeting at a support group.

What's happened to the couple since then is the subject of "When Jerry Met Mary," reported by correspondent Lesley Stahl, which can be seen on 60 Minutes tomorrow night, Wednesday, September 29, at 8:00 pm Eastern.
