Congrats to Citadel business professor and Center for Women Board Member, Dorothy Perrin Moore, on receiving the 2003 Women in Business Advocate Award given by the U.S. Small Business Administration. The SBA South Carolina District Office will honor all Palmetto State SBA award winners June 12 in Greenville.

John Clarkin of the University of South Carolina Small Business Development Center introduced Dr. Moore during a presentation at the Charleston Metro Chamber of Commerce on April 23, 2003. “She has long been a champion of women entrepreneurs, illuminating issues faced by women in organizations and encouraging business ownership opportunities,” Clarkin notes.

Moore, distinguished professor of entrepreneurship at The Citadel, is an award-winning author whose books—Women Entrepreneurs: Moving Beyond the Glass Ceiling and Careerpreneurs—have promoted women in the business world.

Says Moore: “I’m just a messenger for women entrepreneurs. They let me tell their stories.”
