Scope and Contents note
A continuation of the interview on 706.1. Moore discusses how the Snugli fits into one of the goals of the Peace Corps, to bring back something from the developing country to the United States. Mentions that The Wall Street Journal listed the Snugli as one of the important developments of the millennium. Mentions importance of maintaining balance between work and family. In 1985, Moore sold the Snugli company and began work on an oxygen carrier backpack, called Air Lift, which she patented. She also made cases for scientific instruments. Discusses the launch of Weego, a baby carrier similar to the original Snugli but with modern improvements. Thinks of herself as a problem solver more than an inventor. At the end of the tape, she discusses her home, garden, and her family's love of music.
