Helen Hill Miller (July 29, 1899 – December 26, 1995) was a journalist and author of more than 20 books, but may be best known for her politician spouse and son. She would have become the First Lady of Virginia when her husband Francis Pickens Miller ran (unsuccessfully) in the Democratic primary in 1949 against the Byrd Organization candidate John S. Battle. In 1977, before his father's death, their son Andrew P. Miller, who served two terms as Attorney General of Virginia also lost in the Democratic gubernatorial primary (although his opponent, Henry Howell lost to Republican John N. Dalton).[1][2]
