Arthur was known as one of Hollywood's most accomplished lighting cameramen, a master at black and white cinematography. Miller began his career at 13, serving as an assistant to cinematographer Fred J. Balshofer. (They co-authored a book entitled "Two Reels and a Crank" in 1967.) Miller photographed the serial "The Perils of Pauline" in 1914, later joining director George Fitzmaurice. He later signed on with Cecil B. DeMille and in 1932 received a long term contract with Fox Studios. Retiring in 1951, Miller served as president of the American Society of Cinematographers and in the 1960s he set up an extensive exhibit of vintage camera equipment for the ASC. Miller passed away shortly after completing the documentary entitled "The Moving Picture Camera."
