Personal life
Oliver Jackson-Cohen was born in London, England. His mother is Betty Jackson, a fashion designer, and his father is David Cohen, who is Mrs Jackson’s business partner. Jackson-Cohen attended Lycée Français Charles de Gaulle in London, as the name suggests, the school is a french school and Jackson-Cohen shows that this is the reason for his slight french twang in his Accent.
With an early interest in Dramatics Oliver attended the Youngblood Theatre Company at weekends, he soon landed a small role in Hollyoaks. After school and a gap year, he started a degree in French literature however he left the course within a matter of weeks. After leaving he soon landed a job washing vases for a florist to keep a steady income between auditions. Jackson-Cohen applied to attend drama school in London but his application was unsuccessful. He, therefore, attended Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute in New York City, USA. He intended to complete a foundation year so he could reapply to Drama School in London, but after landing a role this haltered his education.
