Current Events
Harriet Miller was a pioneering feminist and true role model for several generations of young women, many of whom are members of SBWPC.  Soon after she completed college, she was the first woman chemist hired by Atlantic Richfield.  She returned to school, earning a Ph.D. and serving as Dean of Women.  Harriet held many high visibility offices, including serving as State Superintendent of Schools in Montana and Director of AARP, in Washington, D.C. before she 'retired' to Santa Barbara, where in her mid sixties, she got involved in local politics, serving as Councilmember and Mayor, and serving on a number of non-profit boards and commissions.  Santa Barbara is a better place for her leadership. She also was a most wonderful friend.  We will miss her.
