After reading the "pistol" thread, I wondered if anyone remembers Doris Rankin from the old Detroit Federation of Musicians, Local 5?

Rasputin,
Can't say as I remember dealing with any women from local 5. What was her job?

She used to watch Saturday morning cartoons and record the tunes being used, making sure folks received their royalties. I remember her locating a sax player, who was working as a maintenance person at a small school, to give him a $15k check that had been sitting for a number of years. It's been said she really took care of her "players."

Marcus and some other "musicians from the day" have asked where she is now. Any info?
