Donald Miller

Donald Miller's first book, Prayer and the Art of Volkswagen Maintenance, was released in 2000 by Harvest House Publishers. Two years after, having audited classes at Portland’s Reed College, Don wrote Blue Like Jazz, which eventually became a New York Times Bestseller.

In 2004 Don released Searching for God Knows What a book about how the Gospel of Jesus explains the human personality. Searching has become required reading at many colleges across the country. In 2005 he released Through Painted Deserts the story of he and a friends road trip across the country.

A sought-after speaker, Don Miller has delivered lectures to a wide-range of audiences including the Women of Faith Conference, the Veritas Forum at Harvard University and the Veritas Forum at Cal Poly. In 2008, Don was asked to deliver the closing prayer on Monday night at the Democratic National Convention in Denver, Colorado.

Don Miller's most recent book, A Million Miles in a Thousand Years, humorously and tenderly chronicles Don’s experience with filmmakers as they edit his life for the screen, hoping to make it less boring. He then shares the principles storytellers use to make a story meaningful and exciting, exploring their affect when he applies those principles to his actual life.
