Moser was the eldest son of Johann Jacob Moser.[1] He was educated in the Pietist tradition at Kloster Berge school. He studied law in Jena, and in 1743 became an assistant to his father, a lawyer and diplomat. Between 1747-67 and 1782–98, he was an active writer and journalist.
From 1751-67 Moser lived in Frankfurt. In 1769 he was made a baron.[2] In 1772 he was appointed as First Minister by Ludwig IX. He reorganised the finances of the state, which had accumulated heavy debts. Moser reached a settlement of these debts. His autocratic style of government made him many enemies. He resigned in 1780, and returned to writing.
From 1783-90 Moser lived in Mannheim, then in Ludwigsburg.
