Coming clean / Kimberly Rae Miller.
Miller grew up behind the closed doors of her family's idyllic Long Island house, navigating between teetering stacks of aging newspapers, broken computers, and boxes upon boxes of unused junk festering in every room-- the product of her father's painful and unending struggle with hoarding. She brings to life her rat-infested home, her childhood consumed by concealing her father's shameful secret from friends, and the emotional burden that ultimately led to an attempt to take her own life. In doing so, she sheds light on her complicated yet loving relationship with her parents that has thrived in spite of the odds.
The writer and actress explore her childhood and youth, which was largely defined by her father's struggle with hoarding.
