Dearen was born and reared in Sterling City, Texas, between San Angelo and Big Spring. His father, Delbert Dearen (1912-1998), and his mother, the former Thyra Violet Sparkman (1918-1974), are interred at Montvale Cemetery in Sterling City.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Thyra Violet Sparkman Dearen )〕 Dearen graduated in 1969 from Sterling City High School, where one of his teachers had encouraged him in January 1966, while in his freshman year, to consider a career in writing. In 1974, he earned a bachelor's degree in journalism from the University of Texas at Austin. His mother, Thyra, died that same year at the age of 56. At her encouragement, young Dearen read Edgar Rice Burroughs' ''Tarzan of the Apes'' that also played a role in his interest in becoming a writer. He won nine national and state awards as a reporter for two daily newspapers, including the ''San Angelo Standard-Times'' and the ''Midland Reporter-Telegram'', of which his wife, Mary Gilda Dearen (born ''circa'' 1955), is the managing editor.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Patrick Dearen )〕
