When he was barely three years old, Jeremiah witnesses the massacre of his parents at the hands of two rival gangs fighting in the streets.

In 1997, Jeremiah briefly attended the University of Metropolis before being attempted into Harvard, where he recieved his doctorates in Criminology and Psychiatry.

Life of Mystery
His life between graduating from Harvard and obtaining the warden's job is unknown.

At some point, he recieved the job of warden of Iron Heights Prison - where many of the Flash's enemies are imprisoned - before he is transferred to Arkham Asylum.

Much of his life will be further detailed as the series progresses.

Differences from comics to Arkham

 * In the comics, Dr. Arkham is Amadeus's nephew. In LEGO Arkham, he is Amadeus's great-nephew, so the timeline makes sense.
 * In the comics, Dr. Arkham is usually shown to be sadistic and cruel. In LEGO Arkham, he is more gloomy and detached from other people, due to many tradegies in his life.

Trivia

 * Dr. Arkham's mother's maiden name is a reference to Grant Morrison, writer of Arkham Asylum: A Serious House on Serious Earth, among other recent Batman storylines.
