Biography details

John Ringling North II, circus director in United States

Born 1947 in United States , son of director Henry Ringling North .

At one point in the 1980s, the name was shortened simply to "Kelly Miller Circus."
In 2007, the show was purchased by Ringling North, grandson of Mabel Ringling (sister to the Ringling Brothers).

2017: North, 77, is the last of his famous circus family in the business. His grandmother was the original seven Ringling brother's only sister.

There is nobody to take the show on the road next year after North retires at the end of Kelly Miller's season this year. The show was founded in 1938 as the Al G. Kelly Miller Brothers Circus and would celebrate its 80th anniversary next year if a successor is found.

With many states and cities enacting bans on circus elephants and other exotic animals, North said he wouldn't be able to book Kelly Miller's season next year unless he did it without animals.
