Hollywood born and raised, Miller caught the ski bug early in life and headed to Sun Valley, Idaho -- to teach skiing. There, in 1949, he encountered two young Bell and Howell executives, Charles Percy and Hal Geneen, and convinced them to loan him a camera to photograph local skiers. Percy, of course, became an_ influential U.S. Senator from Illinois, Geneen became chairman of the board of ITT and Miller presides over a multi- million dollar facility, Warren Miller Productions. 6 His first ski feature, Deep And Light, was produced with a budget of about $500. Miller personally narrated and toured with his debut movie, unwittingly establishing a tradition which is now synonymous with his name. Thirty-five years later, Miller continues to point his camera at his favourite subjects -- skiing, sailing, surfing, and other outdoor personal best sports -- but now, he spends up to $1 million per feature. He tours the country, narrating his ski films in person to standing- room-only crowds in as many as 50 cities each fall, while in 250 other North American cities, his films are screened with the master's pre- recorded personal narration. Throughou! his im- pressive career, Miller has always maintained complete control of his projects, from con- ception to distribution. He not only creates, writes, directs, produces, and narrates his unique sports features, but often films and edits them as well. With 35 ski features (including Ski Country, released in October 1984) and more than 350 other sports films and shorts to his credit, Miller now heads an active production office in Hermosa Beach, California. Working year-round on the annual ski feature and dozens of other projects for a client list that reads like Fortune 500, Miller deploys six camera crews and has four editing bays in constant operation. His custom built screening room is lined with posters of his impressive output; - the walls of his offices are literally papered with accolades to his achievements, inclu- ding nine CINE Golden Eagles, eight IFPA Awards, and the distinguished Intern- ational Documentary Achievement Award, presented in con- junction with a _ 1984 Filmex tribute to his sports films. Miller is also a'member of the Ski Hall of Fame. His entertaining and abundantly homourous films, which appeal to all ages, have been snapped up by the Disney Channel for exclusive cable broadcast and plans are underway for videocassette -- distrib- ution of his features and shorts. To round out the portrait of this multi- sport, multi-media success, Warren has authored and illustrated two books, Wine, Women and Skiing, and In Search of Skiing. It's been a long road for this self-confessed sports buff and, for- tunately for his many fans, the road still has many miles _ slopes seas lef} to travel.
