She may be the daughter of Arthur Miller and wife of Daniel Day-Lewis, but Rebecca Miller is making her own mark on the film and literary worlds. The writer-director of Personal Velocity and The Ballad of Jack and Rose just released her debut novel, The Private Lives of Pippa Lee — a heavy-hitter about a 50-year-old housewife dealing with aging and the loss of identity — and a big-screen adaptation is already in the works. Read it before Robin Wright Penn, Alan Arkin, and Blake Lively inhabit the characters in '09.
