I never studied much at Howard, but at Boston University, I didn't do much else but study.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I had a liberal arts education at Amherst College where I had two majors, mathematics and philosophy.
I just went to Harvard a little while, because I graduated from Armstrong High School in Washington and then I went up there but I didn't stay that long because I went into show business.
Never say 'I went to Harvard.' Say 'I schooled in the Boston area.'
I started working on a TV show in Australia, straight out of high school, so I missed the whole university experience.
I went to UC Berkeley. I graduated in 1976, immediately moved to L.A. with a degree in English - which did no more for you then than it does for you now - then sold real estate and did theater for nine years.
I grew up in Adelaide, Australia. No one in my family had finished high school, and I was smart at mathematics, so I became an academic and got my Ph.D. in computer science at Stanford. I didn't set out to be a businessperson.
I went to the University of Washington in Seattle. This was a very good place to study, and I learned a lot. But it wasn't the right place for my Ph.D.
I went to NYU to study liberal arts.
I studied philosophy at Columbia, then dropped out to do drama at the Lee Strasberg Institute.
A couple of years I taught in graduate programs at NYU and Columbia, in the early eighties.
