An Ohioan by birth, son of a minister, Ken Miller broke quietly into
showbiz behind the backs of his parents, then relocated to California
after the death of his father. The familiar array of odd jobs preceded
his motion picture debut (1952's
Fearless Fagan (1952)) and a stint
with Uncle Sam in Berlin (where he took time off to play a recurring
role in the low-cost
Flash Gordon (1954) TV series).
Returning to Tinseltown, he palled around with contemporaries like
Connie Stevens,
Troy Donahue,
Annette Funicello,
Burt Reynolds and others. While he
never neared their level of success, he nevertheless kept busy cutting
his own records and acting on the large and small screen.
In later years Miller resided in Florida until his death.
