		Miller: I’m particularly interested in what it’s like in the current economy, teetering on the edge of collapse with millions of Americans in debt up to their eyeballs, to be a loan counselor.
		Miller: When I started my site, I was just becoming a part of a movement for a more just and humane world (meaning I am much more driven by moral, ethical, and social considerations than by political or ideological ones).

	Jason Patric--The Lybarger Links Interview
		Jason Patric is one actor who is often known more for his famous relatives and girlfriends than for his work.
		Admittedly, when his family includes television great Jackie Gleason (his grandfather) or the late playwright-actor Jason Miller (his father and the star of The Exorcist), it's not surprising that his mesmerizing creepy performance as a misogynistic doctor in Neil LaBute's Your Friends and Neighbors, which Patric also produced, might go overlooked.
		Tell me what they're going to be, and I as the actor will bring you into them or take you out of them with my eyes or a subtle movement.

	Go Irish: The Purgatory Diaries of Jason Miller by Rodger Jacobs (Book) in Literature & Fiction
		“Go Irish: The Purgatory Diaries of Jason Miller” is an intense one-man show that examines the soul in afterlife of the late Pulitzer Prize winning playwright (“That Championship Season”) and film and television actor (“The Exorcist”, “F. Scott Fitzgerald in Hollywood”) Jason Miller.
		I also suspect that, despite the effects of alcoholism on Miller’s career and relationships, he was respected and liked by many in Scranton, and was not the stereotypical “town drunk” but was enjoying something of a creative resurgence at the time of his death.
		I’d recommend it to anyone interested in Jason Miller, and anyone interested in Irish-American writers, and how the need to live up to an image can overtake one’s self.

	EXORCIST; Linda Blair, Jason Miller, Max von Sydow, CinemaSense.Com Review
		When 12-year-old Regan (Linda Blair) falls victim to a mental ailment that an echelon of expert doctors cannot begin to understand yet alone mend, her mother (Ellen Burstyn) seeks the help of a priest.
		Not only is Father Karras (Jason Miller) suspicious of the possession claims by Regan’s mother because of his professional background as a psychologist, but also because of his own personal and profound crisis of faith.
		When possession by the devil himself is revealed, Father Karras and his ecclesiastical supervisors call on Merrin, the only priest in the Northeastern United States who’s ever performed exorcism.

		Playwright and actor Jason Miller is probably best remembered for his role as the priest, Father Karras, in "The Exorcist" (which garnered him an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor) and for his play "That Championship Season" which bagged him a Pulitzer Prize and a Tony Award.
		Unfortunately, Miller's subsequent works weren't as successful as his first and the chapter on him is titled, quite appropriately, "Season in the Sun."
