Amoss is a native of New Orleans, Louisiana. His family lived abroad in Germany and Belgium for many years during his childhood. He attended Gymnasium Barkof in Bremen, Germany. He returned to New Orleans for his junior year of high school, graduating from Jesuit High School (1965).
He graduated magna cum laude from Yale University (1969), where he majored in German literature. He studied at the University of Oxford as a Rhodes Scholar, specializing in German literature and the work of Thomas Mann.
After completing his studies during the Vietnam War, Amoss applied for conscientious objector status.〔http://yaledailynews.com/blog/2005/09/30/after-katrina-alum-keeps-press-running/〕 Granted the designation, he worked as an orderly in Boston City Hospital. Upon returning to New Orleans two years later, Amoss enrolled in a night course at Loyola University New Orleans on the basics of journalism.〔http://www.nola.com/business/index.ssf/2015/10/jim_amoss_nola_times-picayune.html〕
