Benjamin Moore was prominent in the American Studio Glass Movement, and involved in the movement from its inception. He studied at glassmaking programs in the United States, as well as under glass masters in Venice, Italy, and was responsible for shaping the contemporary studio glass environment in the U.S. by bringing two important Italian artisans Lino Talgliapietra and his brother-in-law to the United States to present their work and methods. His main influences were the artist Dale Chihuly and the architectural glass expert, James Carpenter.
