Education

Moser graduated from Scotus Central Catholic High School in Columbus, Nebraska, in 1969. He earned his associate degree at Central Community college and graduated from University of Nebraska-Lincoln in 1975 with a bachelor's degree.

Career

Moser was mayor of Columbus from 2004 to 2016. In 2010, he tried to run for the Nebraska Legislature in Nebraska's 22nd district. He advanced in the primary but lost the general election to Paul Schumacher.[2]
