Born on October 15, 1931 in Springfield, Ohio, Kenny Miller, the son of a minister, broke quietly into
show biz behind the backs of his parents, and relocated to California after the death of his father.
Early in his career Kenny played a singer and dancer in many teen rock 'n roll films.
Better movies followed including the one he is proudest of, Cecil B. DeMille's production of
The Buccaneer directed by Anthony Quinn.
Kenny Miller's busy schedule has included appearances on the television show American
Bandstand and various variety shows. He also made numerous guest appearances on a many
television shows. Kenny's role of Wallace Warden on the ABC series B. L. Stryker won him the
Crystal Reel Award for Best Supporting Actor.
In the sixties, Kenny began touring the country as one of the foremost experts of the twist.
His personality and charisma before live audiences led to forming a successful singing nightclub
act, which he preformed throughout the United States, Europe, North Africa and the Far East.
Kenny Miller performed on the stage before and during his early film career and has returned to it
again. His appearance at the Burt Reynold's Dinner Theater with Charles Nelson Reilly and Darryl
Hickman in The Odd Couple was filmed for Showtime television.
Kenny has written his autobiography, which he collaborated with Donald Vaughan. The first edition,
which is now out of print, was titled Kenny Miller: Surviving Teenage Werewolves, Puppet People
and Hollywood. A new updated and expanded version titled Hollywood Inside & Out: The Kenny
Miller Story is now available. In the books, Kenny talks about his adventures in film, nightclubs,
theater, radio and television and the many enduring friendships that made it all worthwhile.
Kenny is now living in Palm Springs, California.
