Ruth Nulton Moore (1923-2001)
American author of children's novels. Born in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania in 1923. She studied at Bucknell, Columbia and Pennsylvania Universities and then became a teacher of English and social studies. After a number of years teaching, she began to write freelance and eventually published 21 children's books.
Her stories were mainly mysteries and adventures and some historical novels. She wrote a series of mysteries about brother and sister Sam and Sarah, of which the first one was a horse story. Also wrote two other stand-alone pony novels, one for younger children. I am not sure what her interest was in horses, but she did live on a farm for much of her life so could have come into contact with them there.
