Columbus graduated from John F. Kennedy High School in Warren, Ohio and from New York University's film school at the Tisch School of the Arts. There he was a schoolmate of Charlie Kaufman[1].
After finishing film school, Columbus worked as a screenwriter with Steven Spielberg's Amblin Productions, working on Gremlins (1984), The Goonies (1985) and Young Sherlock Holmes (1985). Later Spielberg brought Columbus to write for his Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989) the third installment of Indiana Jones films, but producer George Lucas was not satisfied with Columbus's script and terminated the contract.[citation needed]. He created and wrote the first episodes of the animated series Galaxy High (1986) and made his directorial debut with the teen comedy Adventures in Babysitting (1987) and Heartbreak Hotel (1988).
