Stuart Miller Obituary

Stuart Miller, Ph.D.

Long-time resident of Carmel, California, passed on July 1, 2014 at the age of 76. Stuart graduated Oberlin College and completed his M.A. and PhD at Yale University. He wrote numerous articles, book chapters, and books on health policy, higher education, cross-cultural understanding, men's issues, friendship, and literary theory; he professionally edited and coached many authors. His varied career included positions as professor at UC Berkeley and Rutgers University; the first Vice President of Development at Esalen Institute; and founding President of The Institute for the Study of Humanistic Medicine. More recently Stuart introduced Share The Care, a grass-roots caregiver support model, to Monterey County. Predeceased by his parents, Irving and Annette Miller, his second wife, Dr. Sukie Miller, and his last wife, Eleanor Cox Miller, Stuart is survived by his sister Sally Peretz and his son, Antony Scott. Intelligent, charming, and with a great sense of humor, Stuart will be missed by family, friends and colleagues. A celebration of his life is scheduled for Sunday, September 28th at 11:00 AM, the Old Whaling Station, (back of) 99 Pacific St. & Scott St., Monterey, CA. Please send donations in lieu of flowers to Share The Care (STC) - P. O. Box 1931, Monterey, CA 93942.
