Miller has made generosity a central part of his life and year career as a result of his humble beginnings, the son of poor Eastern Europe immigrants. Under the leadership of Mr. Miller and Albert Ratner, his brother-in-law, what began as a lumber and supply company has become a publicly-traded multi-billion dollar corporation that owns, develops and manages residential and commercial properties across the country. As it grew, Forest City continued its expansion into real estate development, and today has 32 retail centers, 36 office buildings and apartment buildings in its national portfolio.
For decades, Mr. Miller has been a man at the center of civic and business leadership in Northeast Ohio. He also has been an avid supporter of the Jewish community.
He is a former board member and is an honorary lifetime member of the Jewish Community Federation of Cleveland, and served on the board of the Cleveland Jewish Welfare Fund.
He also has extended his civic and philanthropic resources to Catholic organizations and the National Conference of Christians and Jews.

Early on, Leonard Ratner gave his son a great deal of responsibility and included him in meetings and business decisions. Ratner recalls. The building is part of a government complex where Herda worked for a while during his year career as a systems analyst with the Department of Defense after his military service. But it was that day in that brought him conference-room fame; a day of "conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity in action at the risk of his life above and beyond the call of duty," as the Medal of Honor citation notes.
The year-old was serving with the st Airborne Division near Dak To when his company was hit by a night attack from enemy sappers armed with hand grenades and small charges. The citation notes: "As the sappers were making a last, violent assault, five of them charged the position defended by Specialist Four Herda and two comrades, one of whom was wounded and lay helpless at the bottom of the foxhole. He fired one last round from his grenade launcher, hitting one of the enemy soldiers in the head, and then, with no concern for his own safety, Specialist Four Herda immediately covered the blast of the grenade with his body.
Years later, he told a Plain Dealer reporter that a major lesson he learned from Vietnam was that "you don't go in without a commitment to do the job and do it right.
Herda, now 70 and living in Parma, was unable for health reasons to attend dedication of the room that now bears his name. The Frank A. Herda Conference Room for Valor and Service is a large area, painted and carpeted in government-neutral browns, where more than 50 people attended the dedication ceremony.
One wall features a display including Herda's medals and service insignia, and a color portrait of the soldier wearing his medal.
