Editing Mark Crispin Miller's parents, Jordan and Anita Miller, are the founders of Academy Chicago Publishers.
Publications
Miller has written many books, including Cruel and Unusual: Bush/Cheney's New World Order and Fooled Again: The Real Case for Electoral Reform.
Miller is the editor of Forbidden Bookshelf[2], an e-book series that revives important works now out of print, most of which were variously killed at birth.

Opinions
Mark Crispin Miller has offered an alternative interpretation of the phrase "conspiracy theory" as used by the commercially-controlled media. He suggests that it refers to an idea which, if true, the speaker would find it difficult to handle.[3]
Covid-19 Pressure
In 2020, Professor Miller came under siege at his tenure at New York University for urging students in his propaganda course to read scientific literature on the effectiveness of masks against transmission of COVID-19. A student took to Twitter to express her fury that Prof. Miller had brought up the randomized, controlled tests — all of those so far conducted on the subject — finding that masks and ventilators are ineffective at preventing such transmission, because the COVID-19 virions are too small for such expedients to block them.
Professor Miller urged the students to read those studies, as well as others that purport to show the opposite, with due attention to the scientific reviews thereof, and possible financial links between the researchers conducting them, and such interests as Big Pharma and the Gates Foundation.
Soon after a pledge of institutional support, the dean of NYU’s Steinhardt School (in which Miller teaches), together with a doctor who advises them on COVID-19 policy, emailed each of Miller’s students (without putting him on copy), starting with a ritual nod to “academic freedom,” then hinting that the studies noted in that class were dangerous misinformation.
The following week, NYU followed up by urging him to cancel his propaganda course next term, and, instead, teach two sections of his course on cinema. Their rationale was that it would be “better for the department.”[4]
