She grew up in Missouri.Other books by Digges include the memoir "Fugitive Spring," published by Knopf in 1989, and "The Stardust Lounge," a volume described as stories about a boy's adolescence, published by Random House in 2000.
"Deborah was a person who always saw the world in terms of creativity," said Lee Edelman, longtime colleague at Tufts University, where Digges taught. "Anyone reading her work will encounter a mind that is fascinated with the particularities of the world."
