Biography/Administrative History
Doug Moore became a prominent figure in San Diego's LGBT community after becoming involved with the Oceanside Metropolitan

Pride, both in San Diego and across the globe. Moore worked with other LGBT activists in Boston to create the National Association
of Gay and Lesbian Pride, with first met in 1983 with 6 founding cities (San Diego, Los Angeles, New York, Boston, San Francisco,

Pride Coordinators (IAL/GPC). InterPride would go on to bring Pride parades and festivals to places around the country and

materials of major LGBT Pride organizations.
