Over the years, the very active Miles has become a cult figure known for her ties to the avant-garde (Andy Warhol, Paul Morrissey, etc.) and her increasingly bizarre appearance over the years and her willingness to attend any public function.

Personal life

She is extremely reluctant to release personal details about her early life, but her clippings file at the New York Public Library for the Performing Arts at Lincoln Center (3rd floor) do reveal a great affection for her father, but few if any references to her mother or other relations.

Age

Her birthday is September 9, but her year of birth remains questionable as she was first married in 1948 to one William Miles (according to IMDb), which means that the usually cited birthyear of 1932, which would have made her 16 at the time of this marriage, may be inaccurate, and she may be older than indicated in reference materials using the 1932 year of birth.
