Tara Moore
Tara Moore is an award-winning South African director, born during Apartheid and raised between South Africa and Connecticut. Her bi-continental upbringing, along with her biracial identity (she is of South Asian and English descent), greatly informs her film-making perspective.
Her directorial debut, LEGACY: APARTHEID'S SHADOW was a contender on the 2025 Oscars® Long-list in the Feature Documentary category and continues to win awards internationally. Described by Variety as “a people's history of South Africa”, the film reflects Tara's belief in the power of media to change the world. Tara is the sole writer, directer, editor, and producer of the project.
Tara has spent the past 15 years in Los Angeles gaining experience in a variety of facets of the entertainment industry - from acting; to assisting prominent studio heads; to working on high-budget production sets; to creative development - all of which make her the well-rounded filmmaker she is today.
Tara holds a BA from Wesleyan University and an MBA from UCLA Anderson.
