Ačkoliv je dnes Clement Clarke Moore znám především jako autor básně „Návštěva svatého Mikuláše“, v době svého života byl respektovaným profesorem literatury a polyglotem. Jeho akademická práce zahrnovala studium orientálních jazyků a sestavení hebrejského slovníku. Moore byl hluboce spjat s New Yorkem, kde daroval pozemek pro teologický seminář a kde po něm byla pojmenována jedna městská čtvrť. Jeho literární odkaz dnes žije především skrze jeho slavný vánoční verš, který se stal nedílnou součástí svátečních tradic.
