Started her career with her family's
vaudeville act called "The
Five Colombians" and was billed as 'Miss Sugarplum'.
At the young age of twenty-two, she was the first 'star
dancer' to be in movies such as 'Sally' in 1929.
She married three times, her first husband was:
Frank Carter 5/1920 - May 5/1921 which was cut short due
to his death. Then came Jack Pickford from 7/30/1922 - 11/1927
who she divorced and finally Chet O'Brien from 9/1/1934
and remained married to him till her death in 1936.
She was considered one
of the best female tap dancers of her time. Miller's career
was cut short when she passed away due to complications
to infection after nasal surgery. Ned
Wayburn is given credit for her dance education.
