Juan de Dios Mora es grabador y docente en la Universidad de Texas en San Antonio, donde comenzó a enseñar pintura, dibujo y grabado en 2010. Mora es un artista prolífico cuyos grabados han sido publicados en numerosos sitios incluyendo los catálogos New Arte Nuevo: San Antonio 2010 y New Art/Arte Nuevo San Antonio 2012. Este año su obra se exhibió en distintos lugares incluyendo el Museo de Arte McNay en San Antonio, Texas en Juan Mora: Cultural Clash (Juan Mora: Choque Cultural, junio 8 a agosto 13 de 2017) y en el Centro de Arte the Cole en la Galería Reavley en Nacogdoches, Texas, en Juan de Dios Mora. En 2016, Mora participó en la exhibición colectiva Los de abajo: Garbage as an Artistic Source (Los de abajo: la basura como una fuente artística) en el Centro Cultural Guadalupe en San Antonio (de junio 10 a julio 29 de 2016). Mora también ha sido curador de la exhibición Print It Up por varios años, organizada por el artista en el área del centro de San Antonio dándoles una visibilidad sin precedentes a numerosos artistas. Para esta exhibición Mora guía y aconseja tanto a estudiantes como a exalumnos sobre el proceso de exhibición, desde cómo crear un portafolio, enmarcar e instalar obras, hasta realizar contratos con galeristas y vender las obras al público.
