Bart Everson was born in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and raised in Greenwood, Indiana, the child of Ray and Ruth Everson. He attended Greenwood Community High School; Furuhedsskolan in Kalix, Sweden; and Indiana University in Bloomington, Indiana. It was here that his career as a video editor and producer began, when he was arrested for streaking across campus and sentenced to community service in the local public access TV station.
