George died suddenly April 19, 2024, in the Netherlands of a recently diagnosed autoimmune disorder.

He grew up in Arlington, Va., and attended the Potomac School, where he was captain of the baseball team and editor of the literary magazine. At Princeton, George continued to pursue his love of baseball and literature, majoring in English and playing varsity baseball for two seasons, including as a relief pitcher for the 1996 Ivy League champion team. George joined Cottage Club and wrote his thesis on the development of American quest-romance novels, focusing on Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and Moby-Dick.

After graduation, George began a career in the financial industry, first with Goldman Sachs in New York, followed by a series of hedge funds. In 2015, he embarked on his own quest for adventure, moving to Amsterdam to take a job with a Dutch pension-fund management company. George came to love the expatriate lifestyle, teaching himself Dutch and traveling extensively in Europe and Asia.

George was predeceased by his father, George Miller Jr. ’63. He is survived by his mother, Kay; sister Angela; brother Bill ’00; one niece; and two nephews.
