Bio:
Please note that there are at least three Frank Millers who have worked in the medium of sequential art. This article is dedicated to the one most directly related to comic books, and the most modern "Frank Miller" working in the medium. Fortunately credits for the other "Frank Millers" generally predate this Frank Miller's birthday.
Despite the fact that his skills have made him powerful enough to make him a virtual auteur force in the comics industry, Frank Miller's early career was pretty rocky. This is evident in his sporadic early work. A few pages here, just pencils there, an occasional inking. Miller's first work in comic books was probably in Gold Key's Twilight Zone in 1978, for which he did the inside art. His first work at Marvel was on John Carter, Warlord of Mars #18, in 1978 and his first work at DC was on Weird War Tales #64.

The work that first established Frank Miller as a comic world force to be reckoned with, respected and recognized was his work on Daredevil.
Besides being an accomplished and distinguished writer, artist and storyteller, Frank Miller is also one of a handful of creators who is known and recognized outside of the comic book industry. He is outspoken and does not hesitate to give praise to people who are putting out a good product. And as Marvel will testify, he is not afraid to speak out against people who he believes are hurting the industry.
Miller has done work for all of the major publishers in the comic industry and has won many awards for his work.

Date of Birth: 27 January 1957
Birthplace: Olney, Maryland, USA

Notes:
This database is dedicated, in the words of its originator, to becoming the "imdb.com of comics". Ironically, Frank Miller is one of the few comic book creators that actually has an imdb.com entry.

His accomplishments at movie theatres worldwide include:

Either writing or contributing the characters or concept to: Sin City 1-3, 300, Elektra, Rats: A Sin City Yarn, Big Guy and Rusty the Boy Robot, RoboCop 2-3, and RoboCop vs. the Terminator. Also, though he received no direct credit for it, Batman Begins is widely acknowledged to be based upon his vision of the character, especially as seen in Batman: Year One. Likewise, his earlier work, Batman: The Dark Knight Returns is seen as having influenced the 1989 Batman film. He would further have to be said to have had an influence on the Daredevil movie, if for no other reason (and there are other reasons) than its inclusion of Elektra, a character he created.

Acting or appearing as himself in: Sin City, Daredevil, RoboCop, Jugular Wine: A Vampire Odyssey.

He also has appeared in several different documentaries about comic books.
