Miles is enrolled on the Umatilla reservation, where she's a member of the Cayuse / Nez Perce tribe. Born in Pendleton, Oregon, she moved to Seattle when her father got a job as a machinist at Boeing. She graduated from Renton High School. As she says, “Part of me is Native American Indian; part of me isn't.” Her conversation flows wildly and seamlessly from discussion of powwow dancing and the Lewiston roundup to extended contemplation of a purchase of a “GMC pickup, cab-and-a-half, short bed, four-wheel drive, AM/FM cassette stereo, air conditioning, tinted windows. A Porsche is a prissy car: touch it and it's a wreck.”
