Moore was born in New Orleans and began working as a correspondent in Washington in 1900. He then works as a foreign correspondent for the New York Times. The Times (London), Associated Press, and Reuter's. He was based at various times in London, the Balkans, Morocco, Turkey, Moscow, and China. In 1917 he returned to New York and became the managing editor of Asia magazine.

He attended the Paris Peace Conference in 1919, and the League of Nations Assembly in Geneva, Switzerland in 1920.

Moore was then foreign counsellor at the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs from 1921-1926, and a member of the Japanese delegation at the League of Nations meeting on the Manchuria crisis (1932-33). He then left Japanese service and settled in Washington. Between 1933 and 1934 he worked briefly on Pershing's memoirs, while also doing some freelance writing. He returned to work for the Japanese Foreign Ministry in Washington sometime after 1935, where he remained until the U.S. entry into WWII in December 1941.

He was the author of a number of books based on his foreign work, including The Balkan Trail (1909), Chaos in Europe (1919), and With Japan's Leaders (1942).
