About The Bob Moog Foundation
The Bob Moog Foundation was created upon Bob's passing in August 2005. After witnessing the outpouring of thousands of testimonials from people around the world who had been touched by Bob's work, Bob's family and colleagues established the foundation to carry on his legacy. The Foundation officially launched a year later in August 2006, and is based in Asheville, North Carolina. After volunteering her time as director for over a year, Michelle Moog-Koussa, Bob's third daughter became the full-time executive director in February of 2007. Over the course of the past several years, Michelle, the Board, and a team of dedicated volunteers have been leading the foundation to fulfill our goals of creating a Moogseum, preserving Bob's archive and bringing electronic music into the schools as a vehicle to teach children about science, music and innovation. In the past few years, we have been supported by donors around the world who are passionate about Bob Moog's legacy and by organizations throughout the music industry. The Bob Moog Foundation is an independent non-profit organization which is not formally affiliated with Moog Music, Inc., the company that manufactures Moog(R) instruments.Author Archive | The Bob Moog Foundation
