Treadgold holds an A.B. from Harvard University (1970) and a Ph.D. from the same university (1977). He wrote his A.B. thesis on Arianism as a force in politics, 429–586 under the guidance of Angeliki Laiou and Caroline Walker Bynum. The advisors of his Ph.D. thesis on The nature of the Bibliotheca of Photius were Ihor Ševčenko and Herbert Bloch.

His interest in the political, economic, military, social, and cultural history of the Byzantine Empire extends to the Byzantine historians themselves.
He is the son of Donald W. Treadgold, a Sovietologist, and Alva Treadgold. He has been married since 1982 to Irina Andreescu-Treadgold, an art historian.
He is a Roman Catholic and has been a Republican since at least 1988.
