PATRICIA DOVE MILLER 

Patricia Dove Miller is a third-generation Californian, born and raised in the Berkeley hills. She has lived in the mountains outside of Cali, Colombia, in a tiny rice-farming village in North Thailand, and also at the edge of the northeastern hills in Kyoto, Japan.

She attended Stanford University, and much later, at the age of sixty-six, completed her MFA in creative writing at Vermont College of Fine Arts. She is also an alumna of the Community of Writers, Olympic Valley, California.

She now lives in Northern California, where she teaches creative writing and practices ikebana, shakuhachi, and Zen meditation.
