Elaine Miles, born on April 7, 1960, in Pendleton, Oregon, is a revered Native American actress of Cayuse and Nez Perce ancestry, widely acclaimed for her portrayal of Marilyn Whirlwind on the beloved television series "Northern Exposure." Her performance in the show earned her critical acclaim and positioned her as a significant figure in bringing Native American characters to mainstream television with depth, dignity, and authenticity. Beyond "Northern Exposure," Miles has contributed her talents to various projects, including appearances in "The Last of Us," showcasing her versatility and commitment to representing indigenous voices in the entertainment industry.
In addition to her acting career, Miles is deeply rooted in her cultural heritage and an advocate for environmental and indigenous rights. Her recent venture into sharing personal experiences brings a new and intriguing chapter to her public persona. Elaine has now opened up about her encounter with what she believes was Bigfoot, an experience that has not only deepened her connection to the natural world but also intertwined her story with the rich tapestry of indigenous mythology surrounding the legendary creature.
Elaine's decision to share her story comes at a time when interest in the intersections of culture, nature, and the unknown is at a peak. Her account transcends the typical celebrity encounter story, offering insights into the significance of Bigfoot in Native American culture and highlighting her ongoing commitment to environmental advocacy and the preservation of indigenous folklore.
Through this unique chapter in her life, Elaine Miles continues to inspire and captivate, enriching her legacy as an actress, storyteller, and guardian of her heritage. Her Bigfoot sighting story is not just a personal anecdote but a powerful reminder of the mysteries that remain untold in the natural world and the importance of preserving these stories for future generations. - Zábava
I absolutely LOVED her on Northern Exposure! She stole the show! What a doll!❤❤❤❤❤
I came down here to say this. She was arguably the best part of that show. I adored her.
Her "deadpan" dialogue delivery in " northern expo." was comedic gold , in my opinion.
Agree ❤❤❤ I love her!
Right! Joel would be ranting about some dumb thing, and she would just keep her cool, always, and move on with the day.
@@timsayer1492 that's nit deadpan. I've lived and worked with native Americans and that is their NORMAL way of talking.
The affection Elaine holds within our hearts is enormous. What a wonderful lady ❤
Elaine Miles is such a beautiful, special person and actress I remember from Northern Exposure. So nice to see her again. I could listen to her stories forever. Great interview.
OOooo I LOVE that idea! I'll show up to listen to Elaine tell stories every single day.
I remember, how in an interview years after the series ended, she once spoke of how she got tagged for the role.
Her Mother was auditioning for the role of Ed Chigliaks's Aunt, and she was just sitting in the waiting room with her, minding her own business when the casting director spoke to her.
I love her laugh what a kind soul
Such a great laugh!
What a woman❤ all societies shold be built around matriarchs and young woman need role models like this. God bless this woman. From a Norwegian viking🇺🇸🇳🇴
We should leave them alone. How magnificent they exist. They should be celebrated and protected.
She is beautiful. I loved her in Northern Exposure. 👏
For years I rented the cute blue Victorian house before it was 'MARILYN's in Northern Exposure, filmed in Roslyn, WA. Its address then was 25 Fifth Street. My respect and fondness for Elaine Miles has never diminished.
What a beautiful soul and wonderful person, always enjoyed her role in Northern Exposure.
She's a diamond in this world of dirt 💖
Elaine, you are a doll! Your laughter is amazing. Thank you for the stories.
Thanks for sharing your experience.
Northern Exposure Greatest show ever.
Reruns are on Amazon Prime.
Happy to hear that laugh again.
I was fortunate enough to be introduced to this lovely woman @ a Powwow in So Cal over 25 yrs ago. Kind, gracious, with a mischievous glint in her eye & quite the sense of humor.
Such a sweet woman! Northern Exposure was probably my all-time favorite TV shows. You were so cute on the show. Loved your laid back attitude.
Thanks for sharing your story.
The best show ever! ♥
That attitude is very native. They call that and other stuff “the way.”
It’s great to see you Elaine Miles!! I put the video on and instantly recognized your voice!
I didn’t recognize her face either, but I have never seen the show she was on…
Me too!
I recognised her face from Northern Exposure....she is just as beautiful now as she was then!
She is so beautiful and precious. I love her face and voice. So awesome.
Hi Elaine. Thank you, for sharing your stories. Yep BF is REAL! I'm in NE Texas ( Legend of Boggy Creek film) they are here. I agree with the man you spoke with. I do not believe they are earthy creatures, I believe they are Inter-dimensional. And I believe they move through portals. You were awesome in Northern Exposure. Blessings to you.~ Debbie
I’m Indigenous Native from a Federally Recognized Tribe in N. California and many of my family elders and even some tribal youth have seen it. I use to be interested in seeing it when I was a kid but now I realize that it follows people who’ve seen it before. I believe it’s Spiritual Being and it can choose to show itself or not. Elaine looks like a few of my Aunties who I don’t get to see that often and even some family members who have recently passed…I miss them so much. I appreciate seeing and hearing her experience. 🙋🏻♀️🤍👍🏽 I’m sharing this with all the doubters.
Stephanie Sample 😮
I've never seen them and don't want to. I've heard howls from them near my home late at night and its absolutely terrifying to hear when you're 3 miles from the nearest town, alone and don't have a working vehicle.
Go visit your relatives. Love even if they are difficult to love!
I agree with everything she said! She is such an amazing person! And she does have amazing energy! Even the Genoskwa had to see her!
Don’t hear the genoskwa term much. Heard it a little here in Ohio.
I did a video about them. they are a tribe of sasquette that roll and dip in mud and then put rocks in their hair for armor. Stone giants basically! LOL
Have always admired her and love her voice.
Agree. I just loved this lady and her story.
Watching this lady and I have to say that I love her energy! She radiates the most beautiful energy and it shines through this video! What an amazing woman
Your a beautiful lady.
While walking in the forest I have felt a presence many times. Not sure what or who but I felt it. Nature is my church. 🥰
I could listen to you all day. And I loved watching you in Northern Exposure. Thank you for sharing your story. Gonna go close my curtains now.
And notice in the last episode of the series, Marilyn looks out into the night from her window and pulls the shade down
This lady has such a great vibe, love her work!
What a pretty smile, she’s darling. Thank you for sharing! ❤️
such a joyfull person, thank you for the stories!!
What a gorgeous soul ❤
I love your energy and laughter. Thanks you Elaine for sharing your very fascinating story.
I loved her on Northern Exposure she has a beautiful calming voice
Hi Elaine..! thank you for your story... Bless all of the Native nations in the Americas...
Without a doubt, one of my favorite actresses in one of my all time favorite shows!!! Love seeing her on here
Great interview, thx Elaine, what a treasure you are.
I totally believe this woman. I feel they can read our intentions. They knoow your heart. They dont want to harm. They warn. They teach. But they will protect themselves.
You have beautiful energy and it is your guardian spirits agreeing with you when they flash the lights. Blessings ❤
I ABSOLUTELY remember her from Northern Exposure!!! What a beautiful soul sharing great stories...and that giggle!!!
Re Watching Northern Exposure for the 50th time. Love her so much!!!!! Marilyn and her Ostrich Farm.
I am grateful for your story, Elaine! “Not from here” sounds just right to me!
I love her, awesome. How can anyone possibly deny this revelation. Thank you, for coming forward. Absolutely believable
Just a beautiful lady with a fascinating story.
Thank you for sharing your experience, Elaine!
Elaine is such a gentle spirit : )
Loved you on Northern Exposure, still do. 🙌❤️❤️❤️
I could listen to Elaine for hours. Something calming in her soul. Love to Elaine!
Thank you Elaine for your interview. You are as beautiful as you ever were.❤️
Loved listening to your experiences, Elaine! Love you in Northern Exposure.
It's good seeing Elaine Miles. Northern Exposure was a favorite series back in the 90's.
Hello Elaine . As I was listening to your stories. I was thinking that you have amazing energy. I don't know why I thought of that, but your energy was so alive . Thank-you for sharing your stories. ❤ Canada 🇨🇦 🍁 ♥️
How great to see you. Northern Exposure was the best. Still watch it from time to time. Thank you for sharing...
born and raised (509)...eastern washington...played in the Blue Mtns above wallawalla often. Oh my my!
I'm in Yakama country now till the end. LIVLRG
I love listening to her
How wonderful Elaine. You touched my heart and made me giggle too. ❤
Loved her on Northern Exposure!
I like her, a lot!
She’s so cute 🥰
What a lovely person, I believe her completely. Thank you.
What a beautiful message from a lovely human being.
Elaine my Son is a Big-Foot 👣 13EEE!
Thank You for your memories 🙏 ❤️
Thank you for your story sister and I can imagine the energy that surrounds you to affect the energy/electricity in the room. 🙏
That was a good interview 🤎👣 Elaine lights flicker around me too. Electric watches don’t last long for me and my Mom also.
Same for me...
No way!!! Love you Elaine, did a double take when I saw you at first. Thank you for sharing with all of us. ( Especially Northern Exposure fans )
Same!
I've always keep my curtains closed; even before I connected with them. Walls won't stop them.
Loved your character on Northern Exposure!!!
I'm a senior BF armchair researcher and live 1 hr North of Fouke, AR. Hunters around here hear BF in the woods..they're not nice in East Texas (BF).
Thank you for sharing this with everyone.
"What do YOU think BF is?"
Thank you Elaine for sharing you knowledge with us!
So good to see you Elaine!! I do believe these beings exist and that they are interdimentional beings, and that once you've made contact with one your "tagged" they can follow you and know where you live.
Great interview. We often hear how people grow up hearing about Bigfoot, but don't necessarily think they'll actually ever have an encounter with one. As for the tracks ending, the same thing can be said for humans. There's tons of stories of manhunts, or search and rescues, where they simply lose the trail of someone because the tracks end, or the dogs even lose the scent at a particular spot.
Im one of them.I grew up Hearing Stories from my uncle Jerry Crew. Years later i and 3 others had a close up, undeniable experience . I think i handled it better mentally than the others, because i had been somewhat conditioned to the idea. 1 of the others had to undergo counseling for it.
@TightwadTodd When you say Jerry Crew, do you mean _thee_ Jerry Crew? I could only imagine the stories you would have heard, that never actually made it into the news.
@@AFloridaSon Yes sir. The Man himself. My Cousin { His daughter} has the cast to prove it.. I had my encounter after He had Passed. He would have been Elated at my Experience. I later did Interviews with People who had undeniable encounters. Not to Document but rather to let them release their stories, without fear of ridicule. I think that having Jerry helped break the ice with many, who would otherwise not have relinquished their stories. Contrary to Popular belief, not all who have undeniable encounters, see it as a cool or positive thing and would just assume it never happened and do not seek recognition for them. Yes, i have heard accounts that you will NEVER hear in the News.
Thanks for these wonderful reminiscences. It’s a treat to hear you talk more than the nearly silent receptionist you played on Northern Exposure. I heard him beating his sticks together once. I believe you.
Elaine!!! I love you! Thank you so much for sharing your story! ❤
A'ho Elaine, so wonderful to see and hear you again. The Hairy ones are so very intelligent and some very protective and curious. Ive had my years of experiences with them, life changing and beautiful.
Elaine! You are fabulous! Much honor I send you as a beautiful Native American! ❤
I loved you in smoke signals. Good job.😊
I' m glad to see you alive and well Elaine. Not one of those Hollywood stories. Where are they now?
I love her sense of humor!
There is something so soothing in Elaine's voice. I could listen to her forever.
She's adorable! And truthful!
Thank you Elaine! When I saw you on The last of us, I almost teared up because you took me back to my childhood. Also because it was like seeing an old friend that's doing well and still with us. ❤
Ms. Miles was so goooood in _Northern Exposure!!_ Her characterization was so fun to watch because she had a twinkle of humor that she could turn up or down, just lovely!
I am elated to see Northern Exposure series back! And getting the chance to thank Elaine again for starring in a TV spot to help Childhaven by publicising the lunch delivery fundraising event in Seattle in the early 90's. She even set up a tour for me of the movie set for the inside segments. Love her unique acting role & her giving heart!
Oh man northern exposure was mY show!
Mine too😊
Reruns are on Amazon Prime
GREAT video you guys (and gals...) Elaine is a pure delight and imo she is 100% right. "Don't go looking for something that you don't know what it is."....great advice. 👈👍
Very cool story she’s sweet
God bless, Elaine ! I certainly loved your work on Northern Exposure. What a beautiful person with a lovely sou.l Thank you very much for sharing your accounts with us !
Absolutely a gem of a woman. Love to hear her talk
Love hearing from her.
It's so good to see Elaine Miles; I've love her acting on all these movies. Would live to see you more!
Loved her on the show!
Blessings & much love to you Elaine.
She's so interesting, I love her. I could listen to her stories for hours. I loved hearing about her grandmother. I was raised in South Dakota, and my grandma also told me to cover the windows before it got dark. It made her feel uneasy to have them open at night.
Blessings. Go truckers and railway workers. Cleveland
❤️ truckers and railway workers - driving the American economy. Thanks for watching!
What a lovely person she has great energy 😊
A-ho, Elaine! Haha I am also electromagnetically sensitized and lights flicker, electronic equipment fails when I am around. I used to be a singer and I would pitch my recording engineer into a tizzy every time I entered the studio LOL. Wrist watches won't work on me, either.
I live in Oregon also and have had many encounters with the Forest People (well, I live in Siuslaw National Forest, so that is what I call them, even though they live in all environments) I just happen to be re-watching Northern Exposure right now. The series is like comfort food for me. Thank you for sharing your experiences. Best to you and yours
Thank you for sharing !
Yes they do exist. They disappear. I had one walk by me. We could hear the footsteps but it was invisible. Both of us heard it and the grass moved and the ground shook.. This was during a Reiki a attunement by a river. They are real. I wish people would respect them and leave them alone. Leaving gifts is good, like the berries or a pretty rock. Aho
What a delightful human being. Loved this.
Thank you for sharing.
WOW! What a treat, loved you in N.E. and you've aged beautifully, your heart shines more than ever, no suprise you know our elder brothers! 💝
I love your stories...TY
Elaine is wonderful. I saw her weekly on Northern exposure and thought she was the best part of a wonderful show. Also saw Smoke Signals several times. I really liked attending the International Indian Film festival pow wow when she was pow wow princess and she nd her mom competed in the
dance competition. She is a terrific jingle or shawl dancer and a heck of a character actress. I'd like to see more of her in the present.
I remember Elaine from Northern Exposure, that was such a great show! Thank you for sharing your story!
I was just telling my daughter about Northern Exposure and that Marilyn was my favourite character.
She was my favorite on Northern Exposure. Beautiful voice of wisdom.
Oh Marilyn!! You were everybody’s favorite character in our absolute favorite show❤️🧙♀️👏
Oh man what a treat to see a great lady again .
I love her energy and always have.
