Throughout his remarkably diverse career in television and video production, Craig Miller has been honored for both his production and performance talent. In 2003, Craig began an association with public broadcasting, which has yielded several awards.
As producer of The Sacramento: River of Life (KVIE, November, 2005) he takes viewers on a remarkable journey through time and geography, exploring California’s most important watershed.

For the groundbreaking Kids, Cash & Common Sense, distributed nationally by American Public Television, Craig won a Northern California Emmy as producer in the Children's Program category, one of three Emmys awarded to the program.
Craig was co-creator and co-executive producer of the original House Detective series on HGTV. His previous work for HGTV includes an Emmy-winning stint as host of 21st Century Home, a unique weekly magazine that explored the new frontier of “green building” and sustainable design.
A prolific narrator of documentary programs, Craig’s voice has often been heard on The Discovery Channel, Discovery Health and Travel Channel.
As a correspondent his reports appear on California Connected, a weekly current events magazine that appears on 13 public television stations in California and Nevada. He has also been correspondent for programs on CNN, National Geographic Channel and Hallmark Channel. Craig was seen daily on TechTV (then ZDTV) as host of Page View, where he interviewed authors of significant new books and moderated discussions about technology and society.
Prior to that he was Special Correspondent for The Site, the ground-breaking digital technology program on MSNBC. His nightly "Tech News" briefings during the program's first year won an award for news coverage from the Computer Press Association. His wry on-camera essays about technology and everyday life appeared nationally for two seasons on Discovery Channel, as part of the innovative science program Know Zone.
Craig has also taught television writing and production at UC Berkeley's Graduate School of Journalism and has been a contributing commentator for the public radio program Marketplace.
Before pursuing independent production, Craig spent six years as economics reporter and economic news analyst at KPIX, the CBS affiliate in San Francisco. It was there that he developed his signature style of news analysis. Using a lively mix of props, innovative graphics and special visual effects, he developed a reputation for cutting through complex issues and concepts. He has an engaging, compelling style on camera that combines a mildly acerbic wit with a casual yet authoritative presence.
Craig began his 10-year stint as a business & economics reporter in 1983, when he joined KDKA-TV, the CBS affiliate in Pittsburgh. In 1985 he was one of six journalists from around the nation selected to be a Walter Bagehot Fellow at Columbia University. The Bagehot Fellowship is the most comprehensive program in the country for the advanced study of economics and business journalism.
After serving in the Army at the American Forces Network in Europe, Craig attended Rochester Institute of Technology, where he earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration with Honors.
