John N. Miller

Born in Van Wert, Ohio (1933), John N. Miller grew up in Hawai'i (1937-1951), then returned to Van Wert en route to Granville, OH, where he began work for his BA at Denison University. After receiving his MA and PhD from Stanford and working for two years elsewhere, he taught literature and writing at Denison until he retired in 1997, living both in Granville and on a small farm. In 2004 he and his wife Ilse moved to a retirement community In Lexington, VA, their present home. Over the past 55 years his poems have appeared in a wide variety of journals, three chapbooks, and three full-length collections, the largest and most recent of which--In Passing--was published by Pinyon Publishing (2014).
