Practice
Miller graduated from the University of Pennsylvania in 1949 with a Bachelor of Architecture degree. In 1948 she received the Beaux-Arts Institute of Design (BAID) Award, which enabled her to travel and study in Europe before beginning her career. Upon her return, Miller worked as a drafter in the offices of Alfred Bendiner (1948–50) and Bolton, Martin & White (1950) in Philadelphia. In 1951 she moved to Terre Haute, where she became the third registered woman architect in Indiana. She began her career in Indiana working as a drafter for Miller & Vrydagh, her husband's uncle's firm, from 1951 to 1953, and then as a designer for Miller, Vrydagh & Miller from 1954 to 1957. In 1958 Miller established her own architecture firm, Gladys J. Miller Architect. She worked primarily in residential architecture, in or around Terre Haute, Indiana.
