Ezra Miller was an American inventor and politician from New Jersey. He is best known as the inventor of the Miller platform, a safety innovation designed to prevent telescoping in railroad collisions. As a Democratic politician, he also served two years in the Wisconsin Senate, and later served the last two years of his life in the New Jersey Senate. In historical documents, he was often referred to with the honorific "colonel", due to his service in the Wisconsin militia in the 1850s.
