I notice that this article presently has a B rating, and could be greatly improved by a greater and more detailed account of Miller's work. I notice that there are relatively few sources and no conversation surrounding his autobiographical work, therefore there is a great room for future growth in this article.

In particular, a great deal of his work involves touring across the country working in colleges working with young performers interested in autobiographical performance and those interested in LGBTQA+ groups. A fuller picture of the sort of works he does and those he has recently completed can be found on his website:

Additionally, little information is given concerning Tim Miller's history as one of the infamous NEA 4, in which 4 artists whose federal grants through the National Endowment for the Arts were controversially revoked successfully sued to have them reviewed. However, the aftereffect of this case resulted in the cessation of individual funding by the NEA to avoid future such scandal. Further information can be found at the wikipedia page and the following article:
