ROBERT BOOTH MOORE, M. D.

    Dr. Robert Booth Moore, an ear, nose and throat specialist of Little Rock,
of marked capability and with large practice, was born in Searcy, Arkansas, July
23, 1888. His parents, Dr. Luther E. and Martha (Booth) Moore, still reside in
Searcy, where the mother was born, but the father's birth occurred in Tennessee
in 1851. They were married in Searcy, February 22, 1886, and Dr. Moore continues
in the active practice of medicine and surgery there. In politics he is a
democrat. To him and his wife have been born three sons and two daughters, but
the latter have departed this life.

    Dr. Moore, spending his youthful days under the parental roof, attended the
public and high schools of his native city until graduated with the class of
1904. He was afterward for four years a student in Hendrix College of Arkansas
and later went to the Vanderbilt University, in which he spent three years,
devoting two years of that time to medical study. He next matriculated in
Columbia University of New York as a medical student and was graduated in 1914.
Later he spent eighteen months in the New York Polyclinic as an interne and
subsequently was interne at Bellevue Hospital for a year. In December, 1917, he
came to Little Rock, where he opened an office and entered upon the active work
of the profession. On the 18th of August of that year, he had been commissioned
a first lieutenant of the Medical Corps and was at Camp Pike, Arkansas, until
September 25, 1918. In October of the same year he went overseas and was
assigned to Base Hospital, No. 65, at Brest, France, there remaining until
February, 1919, when he was assigned to Field Hospital, No. 2, at Dernbach,
Germany, remaining at that place until August 20, 1919, when he returned to
Little Rock and resumed the active practice of his profession. He specializes on
the ear, nose and throat as a member of the firm of Scarborough, Ogden, Zell &
Judd, one of the best known and most prominent firms of the state.

    Dr. Moore belongs to the Little Rock Country Club and his social qualities
have gained for him many friends. His political endorsement is given to the
democratic party and his religious faith is indicated by his membership in the
Methodist Episcopal church, South. He neglects no duty nor obligation of
citizenship but concentrates the greater part of his time and attention upon his
professional interests, which are becoming increasingly more important as the
years pass.
