Biography
Katie Miller was born in New Hampshire in 1984, and
grew up in Boca Raton, Florida and suburban Sacramento, California. At five,
she decided to become an artist and then taught herself to draw. During
adolescence, Miller created her first independent body of work and also fell
in love with art history. Miller began showing her work as a teenager in
Sacramento.
After high school, Miller moved to Baltimore to attend Maryland Institute
College of Art (MICA). In the summer of 2006, she studied in Umbria, Italy,
at the International School of Drawing, Painting, and Sculpture. At MICA,
Miller majored in painting and minored in art history. She graduated magna
cum laude in 2007 with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree.
Miller’s work has been shown at the Smithsonian Institution, the John F. Kennedy Center for Performing Arts, the Fort Wayne Museum of Art, and is represented in the permanent collection of Access Living, a Chicago nonprofit. She is a 2008 winner of the prestigious Wynn Newhouse Awards and was recently nominated for the Dedalus Foundation Fellowship.
