If that's not impressive enough, Elle magazine named her one of the most "intelligent women in the world." She's co-hosted The View, and has appeared on numerous news network programs. Beyond all that, Merry Miller is a talented Harpist, and when she's not performing, she runs companies that among other things, focus on selling her niche music releases. In this interview, entrepreneur and former Miss Dallas discusses her career and provides plenty of information for anyone looking to succeed in the music industry. Regardless of the genre, Merry drops some significant gems for aspiring artists and music entrepreneurs. There's plenty to learn from harpist and indie mogul Merry Miller

So I was already making all the connections, plus from the music agency side I had a pretty vast Rolodex. When I was 23 years old I moved to New York and I called Viacom. The executives at Viacom got me a job as a media buyer so I could learn that facet of the business, and I started at Gray Advertising.

But my entire career has always come from people I met either at a harp gig or through playing the harp. Then I left for a year to tour as a harpist. I still played the harp every weekend professionally and throughout the week, but I always had a salary position as well.
