Personal Life
In 1993, Fagen married fellow songwriter Libby Titus. Although the two of them had attended Bard College at around the same time, they did not become friends until 1987 when they were both going backstage after a Dr. John concert. Libby Titus co-wrote the song "Florida Room", which appears on 1993's album Kamakiriad.
Fagen is Jewish; his writings and interviews show a close identification with Jewish culture, but indicate skepticism about all religion. Donald celebrated his bar mitzvah at Kendall Park's Congregation Beth Shalom in 1961, a synagogue his father helped found.
