Barbara Joanna Miller, known on the Island by her middle name, was a Flight 815 survivor who drowned on Day 6 while swimming in the ocean. She was referenced in two episodes ("White Rabbit") ("Born to Run") (being depicted only briefly in a photograph in one), and was also mentioned by both the the official novelization Secret Identity as well as the ABC website's Lost diary by Janelle Granger.

Before the crash

Joanna was an experienced diver and swimmer. She was known to Janelle on the Island as they went swimming together in Australia, and made sure they were sat next to each other on Flight 815. Janelle was upset at her death, suspecting foul play. Joanna wasn't actually supposed to be on Flight 815. She was scuba diving off the barrier reef, got an ear infection, and was grounded for two days by her doctor. She bumped her flight and ended up on Oceanic 815.

On the Island

Season 1 (Day 6)

Joanna was caught in a riptide during a morning swim six days after the crash. Both Boone and Jack made attempts to save her. According to Janelle's diary: "It just doesn't make sense. She was smarter than that - she knew about the rip tides and how to swim parallel to the beach.". She died because Jack first reached Boone (who was also drowning) and brought him to shore rather than go directly for Joanna. Jack felt remorse at the fact that he had never spoken to Joanna, and couldn't believe she had died. ("White Rabbit")

Later, Kate is found with Joanna's passport. She was burning the picture out, presumably to assume her identity. ("Born to Run")

Trivia

Joanna also appears in the Lost novelization Secret Identity, and was good friends with the main character, Dexter Cross.
Joanna's full name, "Barbara Joanna Miller", is taken from her passport seen in "Born to Run".
The flight manifest from the German website, 108minuten.de, states Joanna's full name as Joanna Ranting. However, that manifest is an expanded and partially corrected version of the manifest from the Lost: The Untold website, and since both versions of the manifest contain numerous details that directly contradict information stated on the show itself, they're considered non-canonical.
Joanna's Passport number starts with HNSO.[1] HNSO also appears in Ben and Michael's Fake Passport numbers.
