Daniel Alton Moore Jr. (born November 13, 1933) was a justice of the Supreme Court of Alaska from July 10, 1983, to December 1995.

Born in Chicago, Illinois, Moore settled in Anchorage, Alaska in 1956, shortly after graduating from the University of Notre Dame. His in-laws, the Crawford family, are an Anchorage business family spanning multiple generations.

In 1983, Moore was appointed to the court by Governor Bill Sheffield. On September 3, 1992, Moore was elected by his fellow justices to serve as chief justice for a three-year term.[1] Moore stepped down from the position in September 1995; the justices then chose Allen T. Compton to succeed Moore as chief justice.[2]
