content: Elected to the Academy in 1977, Miller served on several committees and at various times acted as treasurer. He became president in 1989 and served until 1992. The bulk of this series relates to Miller's activities as president and the general business of the institution during that period, which was marked by a change in directorship.

Records in this series are the remnants of Miller's engagement with the institution and are by no means comprehensive. General records - minutes, writings and correspondence - reflect his participating in Academy activities. Also included are clippings concerning the National Academy of Design and about topics of interest for personal research on issues regarding the artistic climate of the times.
