In 1967 he began teaching at Princeton, where he is now professor emeritus. He claims Chickasaw ancestry.

In John McPhee's 1981 book Basin and Range, about the origin of Basin and Range topography, Deffeyes teaches geology to McPhee and his readers by analyzing road cuts and the exposed geologic strata that resulted from the construction of Interstate highway 80.
