Ranger Bill Miller

William Joseph "Ranger Bill" Miller (March 5, 1878 – November 12, 1939) was an American actor and film director.[1]

Miller was born in Kutztown, Pennsylvania. Prior to being in films, he was a Texas Ranger and toured with Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show. Miller falsely claimed he was the adopted son of Buffalo Bill Cody. He was not adopted by Cody, which has been verified both by Cody's and Miller's descendants. He produced and appeared in the 1922 film The Fighting Ranger, and he wrote and directed the film Guilty the same year. Miller had one son, Wendell. He died of a stroke in Los Angeles, California.
