Abby Lee Miller BIO

Originally from Pittsburgh, Abby Lee Miller's love for dance came from her mother, Maryen Lorrian Miller, who was a 50 year member of Dance Masters of America. Maryen owned seven dance studios in Miami, Florida, and taught classes all over the city before opening her main studio in Penn Hills. Abby took classes throughout her formative years at her mother's studio. After traveling with her to several national dance conventions, she was inspired and captivated by the newest "dance craze" competitions! At just 14 years-old she started the Abby Lee Dance Company. In 1980, she opened her own dance studio and estimates she has taught 3,000 to 4,000 students throughout her career. Now known for her incredible dedication, discipline and passion, Abby is one of the most sought-after dance teachers in Pittsburgh, as she has turned out numerous professional dance stars. In summer 2011, Abby made her national television debut on Lifetime's "Dance Moms." The show has gone on to become one of the networks highest rated docu-series and Abby Lee Miller has become a bona fide star and world-renowned dance persona.
