Bamber was born in Chatham, Kent, the daughter of Scottish musician Edward Miller, and Marie Ottilie Klüh from Hanau-am-Main, Hesse, Germany.[1] She grew up in Scotland where her father taught at the Carnegie School of Music. In her teens, she moved to Southport.[2] In 1958, Mayor Bamber travelled to the United States to visit three American cities called Southport.[3] She was a guest on the American version of What's My Line? on March 23, 1958.[4]

She married Richard Frederick "Dickie" Bamber, who operated a bicycle shop and later a chain of garages. He died in 1971. She died in Southport in 1987.[2][5]
