Copher Award Winner Aimee N. MoorePassesAimee Nott Moore, PhD, RD, passedaway on October 7, 2009, in Columbia,MO. Moore was born in Myrtle Beach,SC, in 1918. She graduated from theUniversity of North Carolina, Greens-boro, in 1939, receiving the first ofmany honors, the Danforth scholar-ship. With the outbreak of World WarII, Moore enlisted as one of the firstdietitians in the US Army MedicalCorps, setting up hospitals in NorthAfrica and Europe, and kindling herlifelong love of exploring new places,cultures, and experiences. Profession-ally, she worked with hospitals andstudents in Turkey, China, Thailand,the Caribbean, and the US Virgin Is-lands. Moore also traveled extensivelyin her personal life, visiting friends,students, and family around the world.

Returning from the war, Mooreearned her master’s degree at Co-lumbia University and taught atCornell University. In 1961, after re-ceiving her doctorate at MichiganState, she was recruited by the Uni-versity of Missouri to manage theDepartment of Nutrition and Dietet-ics at the Medical Center and de-velop undergraduate and graduateprograms. Moore was a pioneer incomputer-assisted foodservice man-agement, and the recipient of manyawards in the fields of dietetics andinstitutional management, includingthe American Dietetic Association’smost prestigious award, the MarjorieHulsizer Copher Memorial Award.

But her greatest legacy is the gener-ations of graduate students she nur-tured and the networks of friendsand colleagues she established. Schol-arships in her name support under-graduate student in dietetics at theUniversity of Missouri and graduatestudents throughout the nation, andMoore’s students and colleagues re-member her fondly:

“Dr Aimee Moore was a force ofnature. As one of the founding mem-bers of the Foodservice Systems Man-agement Education Council (FSMEC),Aimee was a strong and outspokenadvocate for foodservice managementeducation within the realm of dieteticseducation. Dr Moore’s research wasrequired reading during my gradu-ate studies and her influence on ourarea of practice was significant.Aimee Moore made an indelible im-print on the profession of dieteticsthrough her teaching, her research,and her mentoring of students, manywho have gone on to distinguished

careers within our field. The dietet-ics profession has lost a legend andwe grieve her passing.” —DeborahD. Canter, PhD, RD, LD

“Dr. Moore was a role-model formentoring long before mentoring wasa popular topic in the literature. Asher graduate student, you were ather elbow in FNCE and FoodserviceSystems Management EducationCouncil (FSMEC) meetings and wereintroduced to ADA leaders whoseresearch and books you studied.Aimee’s living room in the winter, orher back yard in the summer, servedas conference rooms for some of themost robust professional discussionsoutside of formal seminars. And theattendees included not only her stu-dents, but the honor-roll of the food-service systems experts in our pro-fession, most of whom happened tobe her friends.

Aimee had many strengths; butthe combination of her intellect, ex-pertise, and common sense made hera formidable leader. She was re-spectful of those with different opin-ions; however, she earned the covertname of ‘lovable bulldozer’ from hergraduate students who studied herability to implement plans in spite ofresource and system challenges. Somesay Aimee was born 30 years toosoon, but I disagree. You see, shewas one of those women who pusheddoors open for future generations ofwomen and changed the world. Shemade a difference.” —Linda Laf-ferty, PhD, RD, FADA
