In this paper we first develop, following Kawamata and Namikawa, a logarithmic deformation theory for algebraic varieties over any field k and then we obtain criteria for a Fano variety X with normal crossing singularities defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, to be smoothable. In particular, we show that X is smoothable by a smooth variety, if and only if T^1(X)=O_D, where D is the singular locus of X.
