He grew up in Roslyn, New York, and attended Princeton University, receiving an B.A. in Comparative Literature in 1980.[1] He first became interested in films after seeing Godard's Breathless during his freshman year at Princeton. In the early 1980s, after graduating from Princeton, Brody briefly lived in Paris. He is the author of a biography of French New Wave film director Jean-Luc Godard and is writing a book about the New Wave.
