Millie Miller (8 April 1922 – 29 October 1977) was a British Labour Party politician.
Miller was elected a councillor in Stoke Newington in 1945, and in the London Borough of Camden when it was created in 1964.[1] She became the first woman mayor of Camden, and later became the first woman to lead a London Borough council when she became Camden's leader in 1971,[1] remaining in the post until 1973.
After coming second to the Conservative incumbent Thomas Iremonger in her first bid to become Member of Parliament for Ilford North in the February 1974 general election, Miller won the seat the following October. In 1977, she died in office at the age of 55. Her successor in the subsequent by-election was the Conservative Vivian Bendall.
