Not familiar with eastern moths,
but this looks to me a lot like one of the shots of Ulolonche culea (Hodges 10567)on the Moth Photographers Group site. (Haven't figured out how to attach a link to another site yet - sorry!)

10567 – Sheathed Quaker Moth – Ulolonche culea
Thanks, it looks like you found a match! It's not in the guide yet, and this moth taxonomy is a bit confusing on where to place it in the guide.
