Eudorah Moore (June 15, 1918 – April 20, 2013) was an American curator and patron of the arts.
She is regarded as revolutionizing California design and for her advocacy of craft as an art form. Believing that craft was as high a calling as more traditional forms of art, Moore sought to blur the distinction between the two.
She promoted the New Craftsman Movement, which fostered the contributions of people working in the crafts, developed links between craftspeople and manufacturers, and railed against the dehumanizing effects of the industrial revolution which, in the context of made objects, she saw as destructive to individual effort and expression as it corporatized the creative act.
