The study of the linear, nonlinear, and photo-induced behavior in a magneto-optic micro-cavity in the strong coupling regime is investigated using the reflectivity and magneto-optic Kerr rotation techniques. The photo-induced modifications of the strong coupling regime are traced to the light induced changes of the exciton transition by many body interactions and band filling effects. At a fluence of 1 (mu) J/cm-2 the saturation and blue shift of the quantum well exciton transition produce strong modifications of the lower polariton frequency which induce nonlinear magneto-optic Kerr rotations of 30 degrees at a magnetic field amplitude of 0.2 Tesla. With no applied magnetic field polarization rotations of more than 10 degrees are photo- induced by 1 (mu) J/cm-2 fluence circularly polarized pump pulses. Such a physical effect could be interesting for high contrast fast optical signal processing when room temperature operation becomes available.
