Notes

Suspense Novelist Jeffrey Deavers, Author Biographies
Best Selling Novelist Jeffrey Wilds Deaver was created May 6,1950 near Chicago, Illinois in Glen Ellen. Jeffrey's dad was an advertising copywriter (hmm, does writing run in the family?) and his mom was a homemaker.

Even as a kid, Jeffrey was interested in books and writing. He started his first book when he was only 11. He says that he has always had an extremely vivid imagination.

Jeffrey earned a Bachelor of Literature degree at the University of Missouri. He worked as a journalist for a magazine before graduating from Fordham University of Law. While working in a large Wall Street lawyer, Jeffrey began writing suspense novels. He started writing full time in 1990.

Jeffrey writes overly busy plot driven novels. His books are filled complex twists and surprises. He says that his goal on paper is for pure entertain value. He says,"My job would be to scare people and I'll do whatever needs doing to grab them by the lapels in the initial chapter and drag them through the book.

Jeffrey also writes poetry and contains published collections of short stories. Jeffrey has won several awards for his novels as well as his short stories. Denzel Washington and Angelina Jolie starred in the hit movie, "The Bone Collector," predicated on Jeffrey's first book in the Lincoln Rhyme novel series.

In check here of 2003, Jeffrey appeared in the CBS daytime soap opera, Because the World Turns, as a corrupt reporter. He says that instead of a cameo role, which he was expecting, he wound up doing real acting plus some stunt work with three days.

Jeffrey makes his home in NEW YORK where he and his partner, Madelyn, raise and show Briard dogs. They're actively involved with animal welfare charities. Jeffrey says, "I'll never hurt a child or an animal in my books."

Jeffrey has a younger sister, Julie Reece Deavers, who has published books for adults.
Asked how his friends would describe him, he says they would say he was generous,
funny and weird.
