Sienna Miller Bio
Sienna Rose Miller was born on December 28, 1981. Sienna is a BAFTA and London Film Critics Circle Award-nominated American-born English actress, model and fashion designer.
Miller was born in New York City on 28 December 1981 and moved with her family to London, England when she was a year old. She attended Heathfield St Mary's School, a boarding school in Ascot, Berkshire and later studied for a year at the Lee Strasberg Institute in New York City with luminaries such as Will Lee, Marc Griffin and Konima Summer, with whom she has remained close friends. Her father Edward Miller is an American banker turned Chinese art dealer. Her South African mother, Josephine "Jo" Miller, ran Lee Strasberg's acting academy in London and was once David Bowie's secretary. Her parents parted when she was six years old, and her father subsequently married the English interior designer Kelly Hoppen; they divorced after 15 years. Miller has a sister, Savannah, a fashion designer; two half-brothers, Charles and Stephen, and a former stepsister, Natasha Corrett (the daughter of Hoppen).
Prior to her professional acting career, Miller worked as a photographic model. She signed with Tandy Anderson, and modelled for Coca-Cola, Italian Vogue, Prada and the 2003 Pirelli Calendar. Miller has also been closely associated with the style of fashion that became known as boho chic. Miller signed a two-year contract with Pepe Jeans London; the jeans ad campaign first appeared in magazines March 2006.
In her early acting career, Miller performed in several amateur New York City plays including The Striker, Independence, and Oscar-winning director Anthony Minghella's Cigarettes & Chocolate. In 2001, she made her film début with South Kensington, with Rupert Everett and Elle Macpherson. Her next projects were High Speed and The Ride (aka Joy-Rider) in 2002. In 2003, Miller had a recurring role in Simon West's television action drama series Keen Eddie. Miller had supporting roles in the remake of the 1966 film Alfie starring Jude Law in 2004. In the same year, she made Layer Cake with Daniel Craig. In 2005, she made her professional stage début as Celia in a West End production of Shakespeare's As You Like It alongside Helen McCrory and Dominic West. She understudied the lead role of Rosalind, which she played for one performance, when McCrory fell ill. Later that year, Miller played the female lead opposite Heath Ledger in the period drama, Casanova, followed by what is known as her breakthrough role portraying 1960s socialite and Andy Warhol's muse Edie Sedgwick in the film Factory Girl, which opened December 29, 2006. Although the film has been deemed controversial, her performance has received acclaim. In 2007, Miller played a small role opposite Michelle Pfeiffer and Robert De Niro in Matthew Vaughn's fantasy epic Stardust, based on the book by Neil Gaiman of the same name. That same year, she played an American starlet to Steve Buscemi's reporter in the film Interview, which was also directed by Buscemi and portrayed an undead bride opposite James Franco in the horror comedy Camille which has yet to receive a wide release. In 2008, Miller appeared in the film version of writer Michael Chabon's novel, The Mysteries of Pittsburgh, also starring Peter Sarsgaard and filmed The Edge of Love, with friend Keira Knightley, a biopic of Dylan Thomas in which she plays his wife Caitlin and romantic interest of Knightley's character. Hippie Hippie Shake a new Working Title production directed by Beeban Kidron also stars Cillian Murphy and is set in 1960s America. Importance, a contemporary re-working of Oscar Wilde's A Woman of No Importance and a live-action film adaptation of the comic book and cartoon G.I. Joe are both films Miller has signed on to film in 2008.
Miller designed limited edition T-shirts or vests for the 'Little Tee Campaign' for Breast Cancer Care which donates money for breast cancer research. In 2006, it was announced that Miller would design a fashion capsule for Pepe Jeans; the project was later expanded to become a complete fashion label. Called Twenty8Twelve, it gets its name from Miller's date of birth and is financially backed by Pepe Jeans. The collection, which Miller designed with her sister Savannah, launched in September 2007.
