Moody Currier
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Moody Currier (April 22, 1806–August 23, 1898) was a lawyer, banker, generous patron of the arts, and Republican politician from Manchester, New Hampshire. Born in Boscawen, New Hampshire, USA, he served New Hampshire in the state's Senate and on the Governor's Council. He was Governor of New Hampshire from 1885 to 1887.
Manchester's Currier Museum of Art is named after him and was founded based on a bequest in his will.
Currier died in Manchester in 1898 and is buried in Valley Cemetery.
