The man shown in the photos labeled "Mark Miller" in "Bright Promise" is/was Mark Lincoln Miller, an openly gay actor who was a friend of George Nader and Rock Hudson. He never married and had no children, as one might expect.
The Mark Miller who actually appeared in "Bright Promise" was a TV actor and producer and also the father of actress Penelope Ann Miller and her siblings and the husband of their mother, of course. This is the man who resembled Dan Rather, except for Mark's having blue eyes. He later did TV commercials, some of which were for a headache medication (Excedrin?) from the late 1970s to perhaps the 1990s. Please contact Penelope Ann Miller to verify this.
There is/was an actor named Mark Jeffrey Miller who was connected with the "Cold Mountain" film, but he is a completely different individual.
