Reynolds grew up in Wood Village, Oregon, and his father died when he was 6 months old. His manic depressive mother brought in several stepfathers, who were abusive.

He graduated from Portland State University in 1976 with a BS in philosophy, and also married his first wife while at school. He met his second wife, Lisa in San Francisco, and married her in 1983.

In 1989, Reynolds moved with his family from Hollywood to Petaluma, California, where "none of my neighbors have written a screenplay." Their first son, Cooper, was born in 1988 or 1989, and they broke up in 2000.
