A 1942 graduate of Central High School, he majored in art and worked extensively in egg tempera techniques for three years and undertook major mural projects in that medium. He was awarded the Barr Faree Freshman Art Prize. Fish was a scholarship student at the Philadelphia Museum School of Art (now the University of the Arts).
