Biographical Note:
Gladys J. Miller (1926-1993) was born Gladys Jacquelyn Good in Riverton, New Jersey. She
received a Bachelor of Architecture degree from the University of Pennsylvania in 1949.
Recipient of the university’s Murchison Prize in 1948, she traveled extensively throughout
Europe. She worked in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and in Terre Haute, Indiana as draftsman in
the offices of Alfred Bendiner (1948-50), Bolton, Martin & White (1950), and Miller & Vrydagh
(1951-53), and then as a designer with Miller, Vrydagh & Miller (1954-57). In 1958, she
organized her own firm, based in Terre Haute, specializing in residential architecture. She used
the names Gladys J. Miller and Gladys Good Miller professionally. Also a registered architect in
Ohio, Miller is said to have been the third registered woman architect in Indiana.
Scope and Contents:
The collection consists of architectural drawings for 50 projects by Gladys J. Miller of Terre
Haute, Indiana, executed between ca. 1950 and 1979. Most of the projects are residential in
nature, located in and near Terre Haute. Among these are houses for Mr. and Mrs. W. N. Cox
(1959) and Margaret Jane Adamson (1961), the conversion of a barn into a residence for Mr. and
Mrs. Robert F. Prox, Jr. (1978), and a remodeling of the Indiana State University president’s
house (1965). Other projects include the Covered Bridge Girl Scout Council Headquarters
