Alice Moore Hubbard (June 7, 1861 – May 7, 1915) was a noted American feminist, writer. She and her husband, Elbert Hubbard, were leading figures in the Roycroft movement, a branch of the Arts and Crafts Movement in England with which it was contemporary. Moore Hubbard served as the general manager for the collective, along with managing the Roycraft Inn.[1] She was also the principal of Roycroft School for Boys.[2]
Born Alice Luann Moore in Wales, New York to Welcome Moore and Melinda Bush, she was a schoolteacher before meeting her future husband, the married soap salesman and philosopher Elbert Hubbard whom she married in 1904 after a controversial affair in which she bore an illegitimate child, Miriam Elberta Hubbard (1894–1985).[citation needed]
On March 3, 1913, Hubbard marched in the first Washington, D.C. suffragist parade.[3]
The couple died in the sinking of the RMS Lusitania during the First World War while on a voyage to Europe to cover the war and ultimately interview Kaiser Wilhelm II of Germany.[4][5]
