Making History
A.G. Rhodes Atlanta resident Annie Moore was recently honored at a Women's History Month event which celebrated the remarkable achievements of women trailblazers. The event, "Because of Her, We Are BETTER, STRONGER, WISER," was presented by The Stewart Foundation and held at the Auburn Avenue Research Library. She was also presented with a proclamation by the Atlanta City Council to celebrate her remarkable career and contributions.
A Spelman graduate, Ms. Moore became one of the first African Americans to study at the Traphagen School of Fashion, the New York Fashion Academy, and Paris' École Guerre Lavigna. After leaving school, Ms. Moore worked on costumes for Broadway productions and had her work featured in Vogue and Jet. She also had a portion of her clothing collection on display at the Atlanta History Center. At 105-years-old, Ms. Moore is the oldest living Spelman alumnae.
