Thurston Moore (19xx - 19xx) was an American publisher and music park owner. In the 1940s, Moore, realizing that printed information about bluegrass and country entertainers was difficult to find, began publishing the 'Hillbilly and Western Scrapbook' in Cincinnati, Ohio. Containing photographs and short biographies of local entertainers and stars famous throughout the country, Moore published the scrapbook almost every year and eventually he published 21 editions. In addition to the scrapbook, Moore published 'Country Music Who's Who, a combination between a fan and trade publication. He tried twice to publish 'Hoedown' magazine, but it never caught on. He and his wife Georgianna owned and operated a hillbilly music park name Verona Lake Ranch new Walton, Kentucky, in the 1950s.
