Her father, Bill Miller, was the owner of a night club in New Jersey and later in Las Vegas.^[8] Her sister Susan has a degree in photography from the San Francisco Art Institute.

Judith Miller attended Ohio State University where she was a member of Kappa Alpha Theta sorority. She graduated from Barnard College in 1969 and received a master's degree in public affairs from Princeton University's Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs. In 1971, while at Princeton, Miller traveled to Jerusalem to research a paper. She became fascinated with the Israeli-Palestinian dispute, and spent the rest of the summer traveling for the first time to Egypt, Jordan and Lebanon. As a correspondent for The Progressive and National Public Radio, Miller turned her academic interest into a professional one, traveling to the region and cultivating a network of sources.^{[citation needed]} In 1993, she married Jason Epstein, an editor and publisher.
