Larry Moore – Filmmaker
Larry Moore was described by a business journal as the last of the Renaissance scholars. He was identified by the Harvard history department in 2007 as a national historical figure. He has been nominated for a Pulitzer in journalism, won a research academy award for best research paper, as well as a university award for best research paper, and his four independent movies have won 10 awards including best soundtrack, best Director, and best feature film and have played in numerous film festivals around the world. He has degrees from Vanderbilt University, the University of Memphis, and Washington University, in history, philosophy, political science, fine arts, and law. He is a student of classical film. This goes back to his childhood in the 50’s and 60s when tv movies and shows were all the entertainment that his family could afford and was his window to the outside world. He was always impressed by how the good movies could always make a statement about some common human condition, yet could still entertain a mass audience. He says that his film style is in the classical style and is similar in some ways to Howard Hawkes.
