Phoebe Jane Conn was born in 1941 in California. She studied art at the University of Arizona, and graduated from California State University Los Angeles with a B.A. in art history, an Elementary Teaching Credential, and later, an MA in education. After graduation, Conn taught for many years.

Long an avid reader, Conn credits a Ricardo Montalban commercial for Silhouette Romances for inspiring her to write her first book. Once the decision had been made, Conn outlined dozens of published romance novels to better understand how the genre was structured.
