Lynn C. Miller has traveled and survived the 
halls of academia, experiencing both the rewards 
and perils that women face. She has 
served as a guest artist and lecturer at many 
institutions including the University of Colorado 
at Boulder, the University of North Carolina at 
Chapel Hill, DePaul University, California State 
University at Northridge, and the University of 
North Dakota.  A professor of writing and 
performance studies at the University of Texas at  Austin for over 
20 years, her teaching centers on enabling students to discover, write, 
and perform their personal stories.

A successful writer, playwright, performer, and director, Miller has 
garnered critical reviews praising her one-person shows that have brought 
back to life some of America’s most influential and misunderstood female 
writers.  She is currently touring "Gertrude Stein as Gertrude Stein," "
Edith Wharton: Inside the House of Fiction," and "Katherine Anne Porter: 
The Grandchild of a Lost War” at universities, art museums, book fairs, 
chautauquas, and theatres around the country. 
Miller is the author of eight plays, published stories in North Dakota Quarterly, Writer’s Forum, and Hawaii Review, and co-edited Voices Made Flesh: Performing Women's Autobiography. She has recently completed a play (with Laura Furman) based on Katherine Anne Porter's life and work entitled Passenger on the Ship of Fools.
