Harlan Moore (1925 to 2017) started his career at Herman Miller in 1948 running a table saw, and when he retired in 1988 he was Vice President of Manufacturing. In this capacity he worked closely with Charles and Ray Eames. In this excerpt from the Eames Office Oral Histories he talks about "honesty in the use of materials," a hallmark of the Eames approach.
Stay tuned to our channel for more Eames Office Oral Histories, taken from the extensive filmed interviews conducted by Eames Demetrios between 1988 and 1990. We plan to add a new one each week.
