    Albert Milton Moore (1918-2007) was born in Lancashire, England. He attended high school in Windsor, Ontario. Upon graduation, Moore attended Queens University where he received a Bachelor of Arts in Economics with Honors and a minor in philosophy. After joining the Royal Canadian Air Force, Moore spent four years at the RCAF Overseas Headquarters until he was discharged in December, 1945. In 1951, Moore earned a Master of Arts in Economics from the University of Chicago and where he also completed some post-graduate work in theory, international trade, and public finance. He was regarded as a Canadian taxation expert having served as research director and staff economist for a number of royal commissions, including one on gasoline price structure in BC. Before joining the UBC faculty, Moore was research associate with the Canadian Tax Foundation and an economist with the Canadian Pulp and Paper Association in Montreal. He became a UBC faculty member in 1959 and later served as Chairman of the department for three years. His publications include a book entitled Forestry Tenures and Taxes in Canada as well as numerous articles and monographs on such subjects as the Carter Royal Commission on Taxation, sales, and commodity taxes and taxation for the financing of higher education.
