Dreyfuss grew up in Brooklyn, New York. She studied at Wellesley College, where she obtained a B.A. in chemistry, and then received a M.A. from the University of California, Berkeley. After working as a research scientist, she graduated from Columbia Law School in 1981, where she was a James Kent Scholar and served as articles and book review editor of the Columbia Law Review. After law school, Dreyfuss was law clerk for Judge Wilfred Feinberg of the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit and then for Chief Justice Warren Burger of the Supreme Court of the United States during the 1982–1983 term.
