Nato nella città di Glen Ellyn, vicino a Chicago, il 6 maggio 1950, suo padre ha lavorato principalmente come copywriter di annunci pubblicitari, mentre sua madre era casalinga.
Ha esercitato l'avvocatura nell'ambito della corporate law.[3]
A partire dal 1990 ha cominciato a scrivere a tempo pieno.[4]
La carriera
Ha iniziato a farsi notare come scrittore di romanzi thriller alla fine degli anni 90, grazie all' Ellery Queen Readers Award for Best Short Story of the Year del 1997 per il racconto Secondo giudizio (cui seguirà il premio del 2002 per La vita senza Jonathan)[5] e alle prime nomination all'Edgar Award.[N 1]
La Crime Writers Association lo premia con lo Ian Fleming Steel Dagger Award nel 2004 per il romanzo Il giardino delle belve e con lo Short Story Dagger Award per diversi racconti.[N 2][9]
Nel 2009, il suo romanzo I corpi lasciati indietro vince il Best Thriller of the Year della International Thriller Writers Association[10], per i cui Thriller Awards riceve anche diverse altre nomination.
[N 3][11]
Scrive, in collaborazione con altri 14 famosi autori di thriller[N 4], l'audiolibro Il manoscritto di Chopin, letto da Alfred Molina e diffuso da audible.com, che ha vinto l'Audie Award for Audiobook of the Year per il 2008.[12]
L'idea viene ripresa nel 2009 con Il braccialetto di rame, in cui di nuovo Deaver scrive il primo e l'ultimo capitolo, mentre altri 15 famosi autori[N 5] scrivono ciascuno uno dei capitoli intermedi.
L'Audie Award per il Best Original Audiobook è vinto anche, nel 2016, dal terzo audiolibro della serie di Harold Middleton, The Starling Project, scritto dal solo Deaver nel 2014.[13]
Jeffery Deaver ha inoltre raccolto il testimone di Sebastian Faulks entrando a far parte della schiera degli autori delle avventure dell'agente James Bond007.[14] È il secondo americano a cimentarsi nell'impresa dopo Raymond Benson. Il romanzo esce in Italia il 25 maggio 2011, tre giorni prima dell'anniversario della nascita di Ian Fleming (28 maggio 1908), con il titolo di Carta bianca. Grazie a questo libro, il 26 marzo 2012 Deaver vince il Japan Adventure Fiction Association Prize per il miglior romanzo straniero, come già avvenuto nel 2007 per il suo romanzo La luna fredda.[15]
Nel 2013 scrive il romanzo October list in cui i capitoli vengono presentati in ordine cronologico inverso: il libro inizia con il capitolo 36 (Domenica, ore 18:30) e si conclude con il capitolo 1 (Venerdì, ore 8:20).
Diversi suoi racconti e romanzi[N 1] ricevono una nomination, rispettivamente come Best Short Story[19] e Best Paperback Original[20], agli Edgar Award della Mystery Writers of America. L'organizzazione lo ha eletto presidente nel 2017 e 2018[21] e nominato Grand Master nel 2021.[22]
