| Abstract | Photojournalist William Moore was born on May 23, 1933. He graduated from Oakland Technical High School and went on to receive his B.S. degree in photography from Laney College in Oakland, California. Moore worked as a freelance photographer until 1968, when he was hired as a television news cameraman for KTVU in Oakland, making him the first full-time African American news cameraman in commercial television in the State of California. In 1969, while working for KTVU, Moore was hired by the Associated Press as a freelance photographer. He covered such events as the Loma Prieta earthquake, the Oakland Hills Fire, the O.J. Simpson murder trial, and the murders of San Francisco Mayor George Moscone and San Francisco Supervisor Harvey Milk. Moore was eventually promoted to chief photographer at KTVU, and retired in 1996. In 2003, he was hired as an adjunct professor of digital video at Ohlone College in Fremont, California. |
