Dana Ledoux Miller

Dana Ledoux Miller’s roots are pure LA—born and bred in the city that basically invented the phrase “lights, camera, action.” You know, she’s not just some name rolling in the credits. She’s got her fingerprints all over some seriously big stuff. Take Moana 2 (2024) for example—yeah, that’s her, in the thick of it, bringing the next chapter of that oceanic adventure to life. And don’t even get me started on Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides (2011). If you’ve ever wondered how a movie with mermaids, undead Spaniards, and Johnny Depp swashbuckling his way through chaos actually comes together, well, Dana’s a big reason that wild ride works. Then there’s her time on Designated Survivor (2016). That show? Pure political mayhem, with enough plot twists to make your head spin. Dana’s writing helped keep the tension high and the pace relentless. She’s got this knack for weaving stories that hook you in and don’t let go—one minute you’re just watching, the next you’re totally invested, arguing with your TV about government conspiracies. Honestly, she’s one of those behind-the-scenes powerhouses. Not flashy, but the kind of creative force that keeps Hollywood’s heart beating. You might not see her face plastered everywhere, but her stories? Yeah, you’ve definitely seen those. And let’s be real, the industry could use a few more like her—people who actually know how to tell a story worth watching.
