Judith Miller is one of the UK's top antiques and collectables experts. She started collecting in the 1960s when she was studying at Edinburgh University. Since then Judith has extended and reinforced her knowledge of antiques and collectables through research in the UK and internationally.

In 1979 she was a co-founder of the international bestseller Miller's Antiques Price Guide, of which she was publisher until 1990. Judith has written more than 100 books, all of which are held in high regard by collectors and dealers alike. Recently published titles include the bestselling annual DK Collectables Price Guide.

As the nation's obsession with collecting goes from strength to strength and with more and more people going to fairs, rifling though car boot sales and bidding at auction either in person or online on a regular basis, you might be in need of some guidance on what's hot and what's not... As Judith says All that glitters may not be gold but it certainly can be addictive!

Judith Miller is also a regular lecturer in the UK and US and is a contributor to newspapers and magazines. Her television work includes The House Detectives (BBC TWO), The Antiques Trail and It's Your Bid plus she is a regular guest on BBC Breakfast (BBC ONE)

Originally from Galashiels, Scotland, Judith now lives in north London with her husband and three children.'
