Bosworth was born in New York City and raised in Washington Heights, the child of a shipping clerk and homemaker who had immigrated from Russia. He was drafted into the American Army during the Second World War, where he was a codebreaker stationed in Germany. Afterwards, he lived in Paris, studying poetry and philosophy at the Sorbonne, and would later go on to earn an advanced degree in philosophy at New York University, where he taught for some time.

Bosworth would go on to teach French at the now-defunct Walden School on the Upper West Side. In 1965, he was selected as the first headmaster at Saint Ann's, where he was known for his eccentric, aphoristic leadership. His son, Adam, is a Vice-President at Amazon Web Services.
