I'm looking for more information on an author called Dorothy Baruch. 
She was an children's author and poet, who published mainly in the
1940's and 50's.  The poem that I know that she wrote is called
"Different Bicycles".  I need to know:

(a)if she's still alive and if not when she died
(b)does she have an agent or estate who own her copyright?

thanks

Fiona

There are a number of books listed under Dorothy Baruch at the U.S.
Copyright Office. In order to ensure we have the correct author, I
really need to verify what at least one of her book titles were. Do
any of these sound correct?

"One Little Boy" 1952
"Good Times with Our Friends" 1953
"Three Friends" (with Elizabeth Montgomery and William S. Gray) 1954
"The Girl Next Door" (with Elizabeth Montgomery and W.W. Bauer) 1954
"You" ((with Elizabeth Montgomery and W. W. Bauer) 1954
"Five in the Family" (with Elizabeth Montgomery and William S. Gray) 1954
"Good Times with Our Friends) (with Elizabeth Montgomery and William S. Gray) 1954
"Seven or So" (with W.W. Bauer, Elizabeth Rider Montgomery and Elenore
T. Pounds) 1957
"Just Like Me" (
"Being Six" (with Elizabeth Rider Montgomery, W.W. Bauer, and Elenore
T. Pounds) 1957
"From Eight to Nine" (with Elizabeth Rider Montgomery, W.W. Bauer, and
Elenore T. Pounds) 1957

Thanks for your clarification.
