Charles W. Moore.
Charles was the son of Charles Ephraim and Kathryn (‘Katie’) Moore, and the brother of one younger sister, Mimi. (Through his father’s first marriage, Charles had one stepsister, lilla, who grew up in Arizona). His mother was short and often wore a hat and gloves. She was outgoing, vivacious, colorful, and endearing. Paradoxically Charles’s genius isolated him socially, while his mother expanded his world, both geographically and intellectually, beyond the monotonous conventions of the American Midwest. She taught Charles to absorb ideas and to see the world in a way that build the foundations for his architecture and love of place.
Birth : September 1926

FamilyHis father was a imposing bon vivant
(known as “big boy” to the children), whom Charles grew to physically resemble. His father had inherited interests in several newspapers in Michigan and Indiana, but had little interest in them, so he dabbed in an assortment of ventures: he co-owned the first automobile dealership in Battle Creek, ran two farms, managed the Willard estates, and dipped into real estate development and built, for instance, two houses on “Hiawatha Hill” bordering Goguac Lake. One of the houses, a simple, unadorned, white clapboard structure was Charles’s home for most of his childhood.
