As part of my research for my Zingen far Sholem, Yiddish Music of the 
Secular Jewish Movements program, I ran several web and data-base searches 
for Ruth Rubin.  No good biographies that I found.  Of the various obits 
which ran in June, I found the one in the NY Times to be the most 
informative.  Yep, there's the copyright/cost problem.  I'm doing an 
article on Ruth Rubin for the up-coming Yiddishkayt LA newsletter, which 
will probably be on our website.  However, it won't be out for another 
month or so.
