Paul F. Miller Jr

Mr. Miller started his career in 1950 with the Federal Reserve Bank in Philadelphia. In 1953, he joined the Philadelphia investment banking firm of Drexel & Co., where he rapidly rose to partner, and then became president of a successor firm, Drexel Harriman Ripley. He surprised the investment banking world by leaving Drexel to go into business for himself, launching one of the earliest “boutique” investment management firms with the formation of Miller Anderson & Sherrerd. The firm was ultimately purchased by Morgan Stanley in 1996.

Mr. Miller served as a director of the Mead Corp., Rohm & Haas Co., and Hewlett-Packard Co. He was also a director of the Ford Foundation, World Wildlife Fund, Squam Lakes Natural Science Center, and the Useppa Island Historical Society. He was elected a member of the American Philosophical Society in 2005.
