Biography of Bob Miller, author of The Earth Speaks

Bob Miller was born in Montclair, NJ on January 30, 1943 to George and Florence Miller.  He was born in Mountainside Hospital where his mother worked as an X-ray technician. 

Apart from some early moves, he grew up in Oakland, NJ.  When he was thirteen, his family moved to Arlington Heights, IL.  He attended the University of Illinois where he earned a bachelor’s degree in engineering.  He went on to earn an M.S. and Ph.D. in elementary particle physics.

After a postdoctoral position at The College of William and Mary in Williamsburg, VA, he made contact with Bogdan Maglich at Rutgers University in New Jersey.  He joined a group headed by Prof. Maglich to work on a novel approach to fusion called Migma (Greek for "mixture," or sometimes "mess"). Dr. Maglich formed a company called Fusion Energy Corporation to promote and develop the concept. Migma was never embraced by the U. S. Government and eventually most of the researchers moved to other things.

Following the fusion experience, Bob used his scientific and computer experience at Princeton Gamma Tech and then at AT&T Bell Laboratories.  Bob stayed with AT&T as it changed, and retired as a systems engineer from AT&T Laboratories in May of 2005.  The Earth Speaks was written in spare time over the last 12 years Bob worked for AT&T.

Bob lives in Cranbury, NJ with his wife, Mary Kay (born Sheridan).  They have two grown children, Brendan and Stacey, of whom they are very proud.
