Dr de Moore is a psychiatrist at Westmead and Blacktown hospitals and a clinical lecturer at the University of Sydney.

His biography Tom Wills: His Spectacular Rise and Tragic Fall was inspired by uncovering an old psychiatric record.

Dr de Moore recently made headlines by revealing that psychiatric records from the 1960s to the 1990s are being destroyed in NSW
