Career
Miles was given the role of Marilyn Whirlwind when she was first seen in the waiting room at an audition. This came as a surprise because she had no intention to audition: she didn't appear with the intention to audition; rather, she was going to give her mother, Armenia Miles, a ride. She had no previous acting experience. However, Elaine ("Choppie") Miles, a teenage girl from Vancouver, Washington, worked summers portraying Sacajawea at the Fort Vancouver Historic Site in Vancouver, Washington. She gained esteem in the American Indian community, not only for her appearance as a Tlingit woman but also for her attempts to ensure that the character was a culturally accurate representation. Miles was named Native American Woman of the Year in 1993 and America's Celebrity Indian of the Year in 1995.
Miles was nominated for a Screen Actor Guild Award in 1995 as part of the Northern Exposure cast in the category Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Comedy Series.
Miles, a performer and stand-up comedy, has appeared at numerous Pow-wows and appeared in independent films including Smoke Signals, Skins, and The Business of Fancydancing, since being on tour with her dancing and stand-up comedy at Northern Exposure.
