Zack Fox dropped out of Savannah College of Art and Design

Zack Fox was the only child who grew up in Savannah, Georgia, to a single mother. With encouragement from her, he joined the Savannah College of Art and Design in Atlanta. However, he dropped out after two years because he felt like it was not the right fit for him.

While attempting to build a career, he worked odd jobs, including delivering sandwiches on his bike. He eventually realized that he liked to be behind the scenes in film projects, so he produced and became the filmmaker of Flying Lotus’ Kuso horror film in 2017.

This landed him on NBC’s Abbott Elementary, where he portrayed Tariq Temple, an aspiring rapper who utilized feminism to have his girlfriend pay for everything. Speaking about the character, Zack Fox has said in the past to KGW:

“Tariz means well, but he just has a lot of growing up to do. And I think a lot of men in their 20s could probably resonate with that, you know what I mean? You can be very well meaning, but you just have like, a lot of learning to do- because he’s definitely fot some work.”

Zack Fox is scheduled to perform stand-up comedy at Funny Bone in Virginia Beach on June 7. His next DJ set is scheduled to take place on June 13 at Nashville’s Soho House.
