Black and white "hair" coming from exhaust of my 1993 Ford Escort. Could it be coming from the back box or the catalitic converter?

It is coming from your muffler. It is the fiberglass packing used to quiet the exhaust. You can get it replaced for around 50 bucks

its the inside of you exhaust box, it means you need a new one, if you dont get one soon, the wrong amount of back pressure might build up in the exhaust systema nd over time this can damage your cars engine real bad

HAVE YOU TRIED GIVING A WAX, BRAZILLIAN STYLEE? LOL
on a serious note it is the back box which needs replacing because the muffling wadding is coming out of it.
