	Ruth Krauss Summary
		Ruth Krauss, an outstanding and prolific writer of children's stories, was born in Baltimore, Maryland, in 1911, the daughter of Julius and Blanche Rosenfeld Krauss.
		Krauss has also studied anthropology at Columbia University, though she has noted that much of her writing "is tied in with the graphic arts." Krauss has undergone psychoanalysis and attended group and individual therapy sessions, which together with her study of art, music, and anthropology have helped to make her an insightful writer.
		At present Ruth Krauss devotes her talent largely to "poem-plays." She has long been a serious student of poetry and comments that her plays are approached from the words themselves, rather than from ideas or plot.

		Ruth Krauss and Mary Blair's I Can Fly won awards upon its first publication in 1951 and has not lost an iota of its charm.
