George H. Miller joined Pei Cobb Freed & Partners in
1975 as a young designer, became a partner in 1989, and
assumed his current role as managing partner in 1990. In
addition to his substantial contribution to the management
of the firm and its projects, he is an internationally
recognized leader and advocate on behalf of the profession.
Mr. Miller is responsible for the firm’s overall administration, operations, and staff
management as well as for acquisition of new work. He has been instrumental
in developing and refining the firm’s hands-on, integrated approach to project
management and quality control. Under his leadership, well over a hundred major
projects have been shepherded from conception to completion, ranging from cultural
landmarks such as Meyerson Symphony Center in Dallas and the National Constitution
Center in Philadelphia to the new government complex in Milan and the Bank of China
headquarters in Midtown Manhattan.
Among his many leadership positions within the profession, Mr. Miller has served
as president of the New York chapter of the American Institute of Architects (2003)
and AIA national president (2010). Drawing on his extensive experience organizing
large design teams to deliver complex projects, he has played a central role in the
development of an effective framework for international collaboration among
architects, consultants, and other specialists. Through these and a variety of other
initiatives, he continues to promote public understanding of architecture.
