A fifth-generation Californian, she was born in Berkeley and grew up in Redondo Beach and in the San Fernando Valley. She holds a Bachelor's Degree in English Literature from Long Beach State (1971) and a Master's Degree (1978) in English literature with a specialization in creative writing from San Francisco State University.

Silvers, long-time editor of the New York Review of Books, describing the long tradition of strong support that she and other literary women have shown that publication, but questioning the preponderance of males in its reviewer roster and its review subjects.Vandenburgh is the mother of two children from a previous marriage, Eva Zimmerman and Noah Zimmerman.
