John N. Miller
John N. Miller, though born in Ohio, moved to Oahu in 1937, stopping in San Francisco where he celebrated his fourth birthday by walking on the just-completed Golden Gate Bridge. In 1951 he returned to Ohio to attend his father’s alma mater, Denison University in Granville. Eleven years later, with his doctorate from Stanford almost achieved, he began teaching literature and writing at Denison and vacationing in Hawai’i whenever possible. He retired from academia in 1997 and now lives with his wife Ilse in a retirement community in Lexington, VA. Too old now to engage in his favorite pastime, fishing, he devotes himself to writing poetry and short fiction, as well as to his good wife. His email address:
