Edward Moore (22 March 1712 – 1 March 1757), English dramatist and miscellaneous writer, the son of a dissenting minister, was born at Abingdon, Berkshire. He was the author of Fables for the Female Sex (1744), The Trial of Selim the Persian (1748), The Foundling (1748) and Gil Blas (1751). He wrote the domestic tragedy of The Gamester, originally produced in 1753 with David Garrick in the leading character of Beverley the gambler. It is upon The Gamester that Moore's literary reputation rests; the play was much-produced in England and the United States in the century after Moore's death. The oft-quoted phrase "rich beyond the dreams of avarice" is spoken by Mrs. Beverley in the play's second act.

  • Edward Moore (Abingdon, Berkshire, 22 maart 1712 – Londen, 1 maart 1757) was een Engels (toneel)schrijver. Moore was de zoon van een protestantse dominee. Zijn vader overleed toen hij 10 jaar oud was, waarna hij onder de hoede kwam van zijn oom John Moore, een schoolmeester uit Somerset.Hij ging in de leer bij een linnenhandelaar en oefende uiteindelijk zelf dit vak uit. Dit was echter geen succes, en hij richtte zich vervolgens op het schrijven. Naast toneel schreef Moore ook gedichten, in 1756 verschenen onder de titel Poems, Fables and Plays. (nl)
