Rebecca Miller can currently be seen in Alan Rudolph's MRS. PARKER AND
THE VICIOUS CIRCLE. As an actress, her credits include REGARDING
HENRY (directed by Mike Nichols), CONSENTING ADULTS (directed by
Alan Pakula), and THE PICKLE (directed by Paul Mazursky). In theatre she
has worked with Peter Brook in the New York and touring productions of
THE CHERRY ORCHARD.
Rebecca Miller began her artistic career as a painter and sculptor intrigued
with dream imagery. In 1985, she experimented with making short 16mm films
using dream imagery as the predominant theme. She then incorporated these
films into mixed media presentations with her sculptures. In 1987, wanting
to know more about directing actors and hoping to finance some of her more
ambitious art projects, Ms. Miller began acting.
In 1990, she directed her first narrative film, FLORENCE, a half-hour short
about a woman who is so empathetic to other people's pain that she acquires
their symptoms; eventually she catches a neighbor's amnesia and forgets
who she is. Ms. Miller made her theatrical directing debut in 1992 with
AFTER THE FALL for the Ensemble Theatre of Cincinnati. She graduated with
a B.A. from Yale, majoring in painting and literature. In the years following
her graduation, she lived in Munich on a painting fellowship, then returned
to New York, showing her work in galleries in New York and New England.
Some of these included: the Castelli Gallery, the National Academy of Design,
and the Victoria Munroe Gallery.
