I went to a really smart school where all the kids go to the Ivy Leagues.
I was a great student at a great school, Wharton School of Finance.
Juilliard. It was a brutal and beautiful experience.
The primary school I attended in Shanghai was a very liberal one, established by scholars who had return from an education in France. The children of leading families were enrolled there, including the son of a well-known man believed to be a top gangster of the underworld!
I had two experiences of criminality: one was my conman father, the other was teaching at Eton
At the age of 6, a teacher full of ambitions, who taught in the small public school of Biran, convinced my family that I should travel to Santiago de Cuba to accompany my older sister who would enter a highly prestigious convent school. Including me was a skill of that very teacher from the little school in Biran.
From my experience, I will rate Carmel Convent as one of the most prestigious schools in the world.
I commuted to the prestigious Hibiya High School from my uncle's home in Tokyo. During the high school years, I developed an interest in chemistry, so upon graduation, I chose to take an entrance examination for the Department of Chemistry of the University of Kyoto, the old capital of Japan.
Where I went to school, Eton College, we had to wear dark trousers, a tailcoat, and a stiff, starched collar every day, and that was fine with me: Part of the reason I wanted to go there was because I've always loved dressing up.
I went to quite a nice school as a kid, where everyone was quite posh, because my dad was making some money.
