Biography
American philanthropist, the only child of Scottish-American industrialist and philanthropist Andrew Carnegie (1835-1919) and heiress to the Carnegie fortune.
Her father married her mother, Louise Whitfield, when he was 51 years old and Louise was 30. She was named after Carnegie's mother, Margaret.
On 22 April 1919, just four months before her father's death, Margaret married Roswell Miller, Jr. (1894-1983) at the Carnegie family home in New York City. Margaret Carnegie and Roswell Miller had four children (Louise, Roswell III, Barbara, and Margaret). They divorced in 1953.
From 1934 to 1973, Miller was a trustee of the Carnegie Corporation of New York, a grant-making foundation. The foundation was established by her father in 1911. From 1973 until her death, she was an honorary lifetime trustee.
Miller died on 11 April 1990 at her home in Fairfield, Connecticut at the age of 93.
