David Moore (1927–2003) began his professional life in the late 1940s, working at photography studios in Sydney. During the 1950s Moore was based in London and established a profile as a photojournalist, working on assignment for international picture magazines such as Time and Life. In a career that spanned 60 years, Moore mainly worked as a photojournalist, but he also pursued a range of personal projects that highlight his individual interests and distinctive aesthetic. Moore spent the last 30 years of his life based in Sydney, often documenting distinctively Australian subjects and promoting photography as a legitimate art form.
