Arnie Miller, also known as, Arnold Miller, is a renowned scientist, as well as an actor and film producer. Arnold Miller has a PhD in chemistry. While still in graduate school at UCLA, Arnold Miller and his graduate school friend, Jim Pitts, produced, wrote, directed and starred in a series of monthly chemistry science TV programs produced and under the sponsorship of the American Chemical Society. The first of the series of television programs aired on Sunday night at 7:30pm on December 12, 1948, filmed and airing live from Paramount's Hollywood TV station KTLA. It continued monthly and was a first of its kind for regular television broadcast within the American Chemical Society (ACS). Miller went on to become a prominent scientist. One of Miller's projects was being a part of developing low-dose mammography for Xerox Corporation's Medical Products Group. Recently, Pulitzer Prize winning climate change journalist,David Hasemyer, wrote an article about the history of smog in California, he noted that Arnold Miller did ground breaking work in the controversies surrounding the origin and control of greenhouse gases in Southern California in the 1950s through the 1970s. In 1955 regional smog, particularly in the Los Angeles area, was at a critical stage. Professor Arie Haagen-Smit had done ground breaking work at the California Institute of Technology, concluding that smog came from a chemical reaction between sunlight and unburned fuel, such as exhaust from automobiles, refineries, and chemical plants. Many other scientists could not validate Haagen-Smit's work. Arnold Miller was asked to come to California for 6 weeks to see if he could validate those findings. After many experiments and extensive discussions with other scientists in the area, Miller did indeed validate Haagen-Smit's work as to the origin of Southern California's smog. This led California to lead the rest of the nation in developing technological and legislative smog-reducing measures.
