Early and personal life
Miller was born in 1950, in Queens, New York. At the age of 10, she and her family moved to New Hyde Park in Long Island, where she attended Herricks High School. Later she went to the University of Pennsylvania and earned a degree in biology. While there, she developed a love of broadcasting by volunteering at the college radio station, and, in late 1971, she began working professionally at the progressive rock station WMMR in Philadelphia. She returned to New York to pursue a degree from Hofstra Law School, but still maintained her working position at WMMR. With help from her friend and fellow disc jockey Dennis Elsas, she even took on a second job at WMMR's sister station in New York, WNEW-FM.
During her DJ career, Miller had relationships with rock stars Steven Tyler, Paul Stanley, and David Coverdale. From 1982 to 1987, she was married to fellow DJ Mark Goodman. She subsequently married music producer and sound engineer Paul Logus.
