Judith Miller began collecting in the 1960s while a student at Edinburgh University in Scotland. Fascinated by the inexpensive plates she bought in the city’s junk shops she began to research their history in books and auction catalogs, and at local antique fairs. She has since extended and reinforced her knowledge of antiques through international research, becoming one of the world’s leading experts in the field. Her areas of knowledge include blue and white porcelain, bohemian glass, and collecting antiques.

From 1979 until 1988, Judith served as co-founder of the international best-seller Miller’s Antiques Price Guide and has since written more than 80 books, many of which are held in high regard by collectors and dealers. In October 2002, DK and Judith Miller launched a new publishing program with Antiques Price Guide 2003, the first full-colour, specially photographed price guide ever to be published. The tradition continued with further volumes of both the Collectibles Price Guide and the Antiques Price Guide in 2004 as well as the inaugural volume of the DK Collector's Guide series – Costume Jewelry. Her visual survey of 3,000 years of furniture, Furniture - World Styles from Classical to Contemporary, was published in fall 2005. Her next book entitled Tribal Art - A World Guide will be released in April 2006. For a sneak peek at Tribal Art click on the preview link at left.

Judith is a regular lecturer and contributor to numerous newspapers and magazines, including Canadian Home and Country, and appears regularly on radio and TV, most recently on The Martha Stewart Show. She is currently restoring her Edwardian home in North London where she lives with her husband and three children.
