His mother, Loretta B. (née Eagono), was a teacher, and his father, Francis G. Fox, raised longhorn cattle and horses and grew barley for Coors beer. (b. 1961) and Bayard (b. 1969), were caretakers of the remote “Bitterroot Ranch” outside Dubois for Bayard Fox and Louise “Wendy” Fox. Following Deerfield, Fox attended Columbia University where he majored in Economics and became a brother of Phi Gamma Delta Fraternity. One of Fox’s very first attempts at acting was in a student film. Still not a familiar face on the small screen, he continued to be cast in supporting roles, including the role of Charlie in the CBS Schoolbreak Special series, If I Die Before I Wake before he made his big screen debut in My Boyfriend’s Back (1993).
