Neil Miller (born 1945) is an American journalist and nonfiction writer, best known for his books on LGBTQ history and culture.
His next book, Out of the Past, was an international survey of LGBT history beginning in 1869 which was the first time the word "homosexuality" appeared in print.
First published in 1995, the book ranged in scope from the story of Plains Indians to the Nazi persecution of homosexuals to America in the age of AIDS.
Although the men were never linked to the crimes in any way, they were labeled as "sexual psychopaths" and incarcerated in a locked ward of a state mental hospital until they were deemed "cured."
In a departure, Miller's 2008 book, Kartchner Caverns was a nonfiction account of the discovery of stunning limestone caves in southern Arizona by two young men in 1974, and their 25-year quest to save them from environmental degradation.
