As an undergraduate, Jonathan Fox studied oral composition at Harvard, focusing on preliterary epics. His MA is in political science, which he earned in New Zealand while on a Fulbright Fellowship. He spent two years in the Peace Corps in Nepal learning the culture of preindustrial village life. Immersed in the experimental theatre at the beginning of the 1970s, Jonathan also studied psychodrama. All these strands led to Playback Theatre, which has been his principal focus since 1975.
