 Early life

Miller's father "is African-American, Jamaican, British, Jewish German"^[ and part Cherokee; his mother is Russian, French, Syrian, and Lebanese.^] In an interview, Miller said: "My father is black and my mother is white. Therefore, I could answer to either which kind of makes me a racial Lone Ranger, at times, caught between two communities."

He was born in Chipping Norton, Oxfordshire, England, where his father, a Rhodes Scholar, was living while studying at Oxford.^[5] His family moved to Park Slope, Brooklyn, New York, when he was one. He has two sisters, Leigh and Gillian. Miller attended Midwood High School in Brooklyn, New York, USA. He was a member of SING!, an annual musical production that was started by Midwood. He graduated from Princeton University with a degree in English Literature. While at Princeton, he performed with the school's a cappella group, the Princeton Tigertones. A proponent of the 'Frown School' of acting, in 1995, he went to Los Angeles to pursue an acting career.

 Career

Miller's first starring role was as the sensitive and introverted David in ABC's mini-series Dinotopia. After appearing in a few minor television roles, he moved on to co-star in the 2003 film The Human Stain, playing the younger version of Anthony Hopkins' character. Miller's first TV appearance was as student-turned-sea monster Gage Petronzi on Buffy the Vampire Slayer ("Go Fish", 1998).

Miller further enhanced his profile in 2005 by obtaining the starring role as Michael Scofield in Fox Network's television drama Prison Break, in which he played the role of a caring brother who created an elaborate scheme to help his brother, Lincoln Burrows (Dominic Purcell) escape death row after being found guilty of a crime he did not commit. Prison Break is currently in its third season. His performance in the show earned him a 2005 Golden Globe nomination for Best Actor in a Dramatic Series.

Miller recently says that he credits Mariah Carey the singer with giving him his big break when she asked him to appear in the video for her 2005 single, "We Belong Together". He told the Daily Star: "Mariah's an international icon. The two days I spent working on her video did more for my career, gave me more exposure, than anything I'd done before Prison Break".

Upon the separation of her parents, Sofia lived with her eldest brother and mother in Marrakech and occasionally visited her father and two sisters in Casablanca. The divorce of her parents wasn't stronger than her, as she never stopped to shine through her obvious talent from the early days of singing at family parties and gatherings. At the age of 16, Sofia had a recording deal to work on a collaborative album with a French-speaking Moroccan singer, but this project was never completed due to production problems. Sofia's biggest appearance as a singer was in the Arabic version of Star Academy that was aired on the LBC in year 2003.

At the age of 15, Sophia took part in the French motion picture “Soleil” starring Sophia Lauren and another Moroccan movie alongside actor Rasheed al Wali entitled “Wa Baad”. The breakthrough for this young lady was when she got admitted by chance to the famous reality talent program Star Academy Lebanon in its first season for the Middle East. Sophia came to the audition just to support a friend candidate but ended up getting herself the jury s approval and admiration! As the Arab nation saw for the first time this reality program where young talents pushed themselves to the limit to prove their singing abilities, Sophia became unanimously the audience’ s sweet voice and sweet heart. Millions of viewers watched closely Sophia’s every step in the academy and during the live performances where Sophia would sing angelically in front of yet a bigger audience who made it a ritual every Friday to watch Star Academy Lebanon as prime. Sophia was getting a high number of votes from the audience and the jury while she worked hard to perfect her performance. During her stay in the academy, Sophia became famous for playing the guitar and for her unique interpretation of the song “Je suis Malade” as audience around the Arab world started to love the song and sing it while they couldn’t understand a word of French!

From then onward, Sophia became restless as the first Star Academy Lebanon album was released, the sales sky rocketed and the music video for the song “Jayi El Hakika” (the truth is coming) became one of the most requested on television. The Star Academy Lebanon mania soon got the group to feature in a high budget TV commercial for Pepsi. Sophia participated in Jamour Festival in her beloved Morocco where she sang wonderfully in front of a huge audience and a selection of VIPs. She also appeared as a main host and singer for Moroccan Channel 2 at New Year’s Eve 2005. Her elegance was still acclaimed by the media even long after the magic event was over.
