Miller has written seven novels, a memoir and a collection of short stories. Her most recent novel, Lost in the Forest (2005), explores the complexities of grief in a family shattered by the loss of a loved one. Her works have been published in twenty countries around the world. Her many honors include a Guggenheim, a Bunting Fellowship at Radcliffe College, and the Carl Sandberg Award of the Chicago Public Library.

She is an advocate for the writer’s engagement with society at large, having held leadership positions in PEN and as Chair of PEN New England, having fostered literacy programs for homeless shelters and established writing programs for urban high schools and prisons.

As well as participating in Living Writers, Sue Miller is this year’s Woodrow Wilson Visiting Fellow and will be on campus during the week of February 26.

This public reading is free and open to the public, and is part of Living Writers, a semester-long series of public readings. Future readings will be given by novelist Laurie Stone, poet Barbara Reyes and playwright Brighde Mullins.
