Michelle Moog-Koussa | A conversation about the Bob Moog Foundation and more

We sit down for a wide-ranging conversation with Michelle Moog-Koussa, executive director of the Bob Moog Foundation and daughter of the legendary synthesizer pioneer Bob Moog. We talk about …the work of the foundation go “virtually spelunking” through the instruments and documents in the Bob Moog Foundation Archives, and talk about Michelle’s own life journey which saw her follow other directions before returning to running and growing the foundation to preserve Bob’s legacy.
