Miller, Arthur: - Arthur Miller grew up in New York's Lower East Side, where he attended Rabbi Jacob Joseph School from first grade through high school. He graduated from City College of New York and Brooklyn Law School, and he has a master's in law from New York University. After marrying Ronnie Hershcopf in 1967, the new Miller family lived on the Lower East Side until 1971, when they moved to Brooklyn, New York. While living in Brooklyn, Arthur donated his time representing members of the Jewish Defense League in their struggle for Soviet Jewry. He also was an adjunct assistant professor of taxation at Pace University in New York. Arthur was subsequently transferred to Worcester, Massachusetts, to become a partner in an international accounting firm where he was employed since 1973. From 1991 until his aliyah in 2004, Arthur was a tax partner with Fletcher Tilton, a nearly two-hundred-year-old-law firm in Worcester. After his aliyah, Arthur became (and remains) of counsel to Fletcher Tilton. During their years in Worcester, Ronnie Miller was a Judaic studies teacher at the Chabad yeshivah and at the Worcester Solomon Schechter. While living in Worcester, Arthur was active in the Jewish community, serving in several leadership positions for the Worcester Jewish Federation. He was a regular contributor to the op-ed pages of the Worcester Telegram and Boston's Jewish Advocate, writing columns defending Israel. For many years, he was co-host of a local radio program where, in addition to playing Jewish and Israeli music, he used his microphone to publicly advocate for and on behalf of Israel. After making aliyah in 2004, realizing their lifelong dream of residing in Israel permanently, Arthur and Ronnie have been living in Beit Shemesh, in what Arthur describes as the happiest years of our lives. Since their move, Arthur has continued his advocacy on behalf of Israel; he is a regular contributor to the Letters to the Editor of The Jerusalem Post, where he averages two or more letters per month. He is also currently the film director for the Beit Shemesh 55-Plus Anglo Group, where he presents Israel-related films, including many films for which he is the editor. The Millers have four children, only one of whom lives in Beit Shemesh near them: their daughter Ilana, with her husband, Gidon Schurder, and their five children. Their son, David Miller, CFO for Champions Oncology, lives in Teaneck, New Jersey, with his wife, Jennifer. The Millers' daughter Yael Stieglitz, an occupational therapist, lives in Bala Cynwyd, Pennsylvania, with her husband, Jonathan. Aliza Deutsch, another Miller daughter, is a Judaic studies teacher; she lives with her husband, David, in Arthur's old apartment on the Lower East Side. Of course, it is the Millers' greatest prayer that all their family, including their fifteen grandchildren and three great-grandchildren, will merit to settle in Israel very soon!
