| Abstract | Civic leader and human resources executive John Edward Moore, Sr. was born on January 11, 1923 in Birmingham, Alabama. His family moved to Dayton, Ohio shortly after he was born. Moore graduated from Wilbur Wright High School in 1941. Moore was drafted by the U.S. Army in 1943 and served in the 2261st Quartermaster Trucking Company in Bangladesh during World War II. In 1946, he returned to the U.S., and was hired as a clerk at Wright Patterson Air Force Base (WPAFB). In 1955, he earned his B.S. degree from the University of Dayton in business administration, and pursued graduate studies at Ohio State University. In 1972, Moore became WPAFB's first African American chief of Civilian Personnel. He served the Dayton community on more than fifty boards and committees. In 2000, the $13 million John E. Moore, Sr. Technology Center was opened in his name on the campus of Sinclair Community College. |
