Biography
Ross was born in April 1947 and grew up in California. Ross attended Portland State University, graduating in 1973.
Around this time, she became friends with Marion Zimmer Bradley. When Bradley was asked to edit the first Sword and Sorceress, Ross submitted a short story for the anthology, "Imperatrix" (1984). "Imperatrix" became her first published short story, under her married name of Deborah Wheeler. Deborah Wheeler continued to write for years, producing a number of short stories and two novels, Jaydium and Northlight, through DAW books.
Before Bradley's death in 1999, Ross was invited to work on a project with her set in Darkover.
