After graduating from the School for Creative and Performing Arts (SCPA) in Cincinnati, he traveled to Mexico, Honduras, Guatemala, and India before moving to Oregon where he started the Sticks and Stones Theater puppet company. After taking part in the Haw River Festival for many years, Donovan met his wife Lea. The pair settled down in Saxapahaw.
