Sent a handwritten LoR, 8"x10" photo, and SASE to the database address on 8/15/13, received personalized autograph from Ms. Miles on 8/27/13.
Quick response from the legendary Vera Miles, this goes a long way to further appreciation, as in all who write back promptly with warmth and certainty.

I have sent a photo once to her LOR and SASE. That was about one and half years ago and never got it back. I wrote her again about three months ago, and told her what I had done. I did not have another pic to send, but I have still not heard from her. I see everyone else has quick returns from her. Can't understand why I can't.
My sympathies. Are you writing to the correct address? Here it is:
Vera Miles
P.O. Box 1599
Palm Desert, CA 92261-1599
USA
Best of luck.

Did you take the time to compose a thoughtful letter and to show her that you actually know who she is? Did you mention some film titles? I've had some veteran stars mention to me how much they enjoyed my letter because I took the time to delve into their career with some insight. They complain that most of the mail they get is from autograph collectors who don't really know who they are.
