Dot Moore
Dot Moore (May 15, 1914 - May 23, 2007) was a Mobile, Alabama TV personality and "ambassador" to the stars for 46 years, whose long broadcasting career spanned four talk show incarnations, numerous trips to the east and west coasts of the United States, and dozens of conversations with television and motion pictures stars. When she died, US Representative Jo Bonner honored her memory; it is entered in the Congressional Record.〔Jo Bonner, "Honoring the Memory of Mrs. Dorothy Moore," 〕
==Dot's early years==
Born in Pensacola, Florida, before her family moved to Mobile when she was 12, Dorothy "Dot" Fillette had her young mind and eyes set on becoming an actress, an early indication of what was soon to come many years later. One indication was her attempt at imitating movies such as those featuring Joan Crawford, whom Dot viewed on days when she voluntarily skipped school. Eventually she concluded that theater didn't have a particular lure, even though she managed to perform on stage locally. Dot's interests to perform before an audience would resurface during her years on television, as it gave her an easy, yet natural feeling. Before fulfilling her lifelong dreams, Moore would finish her schooling at Leinkauf Elementary and Murphy High School before her first job as a secretary close to her father, who was in the steamship business.
She next worked in the registrar's office at the University of Alabama Expansion Center, sharpening her future interview skills in the process. While at the university, Dot was offered a place in the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers office in downtown Mobile and the U.S. Air Force office at Brookley Field. The investigative position at the Air Force office came shortly after she married Baltimore native Robert Joseph Miller. Unfortunately, her husband died from tuberculosis, leaving Dot and 2-year-old year son Bobby behind.
Following her husbands' death, Dot opened "Dot's Dress Shoppe" .One day at this Springhill Avenue establishment, Dot met the two ladies who would introduce her to both the radio and television business, a radio personality going on vacation and Connie Bea Hope who invited Dot over to her television show. Five years after Bob Miller's death, Dot met her second husband Lon Stephens Moore of Missouri on account of a friend inviting him over to her Dauphin Street home. Yet again, illness would halt Dot's marriage, and the two people Mr. Moore knew very briefly were left alone again. Weeks after a period of mourning, Dot went back to work after finding a job at the same radio station that introduced her to broadcasting, WABB.
