Victor Miller (writer)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Victor Miller (May 14, 1940) is a television and film writer. Perhaps his best known and most acknowledged work is his script for the first Friday the 13th film, the popularity of which spawned a long series of sequels, none of which has his involvement, though he remains credited for creating the characters of Jason Voorhees and his mother.

He has also written for several daytime television series, for which he has won 3 Emmys. His television work includes Guiding Light, One Life to Live, Another World, and All My Children. Much of his tenure of several shows has been working under head-writer Megan McTavish.
