The Edwin L. Miller, Jr. Sculpture Relief Memorial
Tax deductible

We raised funds for the down payment and the memorial's creation is underway. We chose the local and renowned artist, Mary Buckman. Her work is showcased throughout the ground level in the Hall of Justice. Mr. Miller's bust relief will be installed next to the sculpture relief of District Attorney James Don Keller, who served from 1947 until 1970. Below is just the beginning of her process:

Edwin L. Miller, Jr.
Civil Servant of the Highest Order
Edwin L. Miller, Jr. personified the San Diego County motto, "The noblest motive is the public good." His contributions to the justice system were not only a record of service but also of remarkable leadership.
Mr. Miller joined the San Diego City Attorneys office in the early 1960s and quickly rose to second in command as the Assistant City Attorney. In 1966, he was appointed as the first United States Attorney to serve in the Southern District of California headquartered in San Diego.
In 1970, Mr. Miller was elected District Attorney of San Diego County and would serve for 24-years. He was a leader and innovator, with integrity and the pursuit of justice always at the center of all his decisions. He gave no indulgence to power or association whether financial, political, governmental or personal acquaintance. A hallmark of his leadership
was developing the concept of career prosecution that he later furthered as president of the California District Attorneys Association and then as president of the National District Attorneys Association.
In 1983, President Reagan recognized Mr. Miller's prominence as a national leader by appointing him to the President’s Commission on Organized Crime. Mr. Miller was among the first and most ardent supporters of San Diego County’s development of the Hall of Justice.
