Tracey Miller (b. circa 1954 in Santa Maria, California[1] – d. October 7, 2005) was a radio personality, editorial writer, and newspaper editor, who worked for much of her radio career on stations in the Los Angeles area. From 1990 to 1993 Miller and Terri-Rae Elmer co-hosted KFI's TNT in the Morning, the first morning-drive show in a major market to feature two women in the lead roles.[2]

Miller, a four-time winner of the Los Angeles Press Club Golden Mike Award[3], became founding editor of the La Crescenta Valley Sun[4] in April, 2002, and wrote a weekly column for the Glendale News-Press in 2005[5]. In July 2005, the American Women in Radio and Television established a merit award in her honor, to recognize chapter members who have shown commitments to the organization and chapter, and made positive contributions to the broadcasting profession.[6]

Miller, 51, died on October 7, 2005, from complications due to brain cancer.[7]
