rdf:langString William Robinson Miller (1866–1929) was an American architect from Maine. He specialized in richly ornamented Romanesque- and French-Revival buildings. Born in Durham, Maine, Miller attended Bates College and the School of Architecture at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (1891–1892). The firm of William R. Miller was located in Lewiston, Maine, and was in business from 1896 until 1907. The firm designed schools, libraries, hotels and churches, as well as private residences throughout the state. In 1907, Miller partnered with Raymond J. Mayo (1879–1966), forming the firm of Miller & Mayo. Shortly after, they moved the practice to Portland, Maine. The practice continued to work on commissions in small towns across Maine. In 1926, Lester I. Beal (1887–1966) became a partner, and this firm lasted until shortly before Miller's death.
