Gerda Osiecki

There is no known author named 'Gerda Osiecki'; the name appears to be a conflation of Gerda Lerner, a prominent historian of women's and African American history, and Agnieszka Osiecka, a celebrated Polish poet and songwriter. Gerda Lerner was born in 1927 in Vienna, Austria, and died in 2011 in Madison, Wisconsin, USA, while Agnieszka Osiecka was born in 1936 in Warsaw, Poland, and died in 1997 in Warsaw.
