You should also have a look a the following two articles ---

Andrew Gordon: Smoking Dope with Thomas Pynchon: A Sixties Memoir
(in: Green/Greiner/McCaffery, eds., The Vineland Papers, pp. 167-178).

John M. Krafft: Biographical Note
(in: Daalsgaard/Herman/McHale, eds., The Cambridge Companion to Thomas 
Pynchon, pp. 9-16).
------------------------------------------------------------------
The first biographical article on Pynchon was written by Mathew Winston:
The Quest for Pynchon (in: Twentieth Century Literature, 21, 1975, pp. 
278-287).

Finally, regarding Siegel: His booklet Lineland, in which the early 
P-list got - to quote Paul Mackin - "played like a violin", contains a 
lot of additional information. Thing just is that you never know whether 
the things Siegel reports are true, because he had personal issues with 
Pynchon.
