Her continuing success took her to Paris, where she performed at the famous jazz venue the Mars Club and met the legendary Billie Holiday.
Ruth's husband drove her to Columbia Records studios in New York where she cut a dozen 'audition' tracks.
She was also offered to start a tour across the States to promote her records, but refused due to her family responsibilities.
After an extended period back in London, performing in the prestigious American Bar at the Savoy Hotel, Ruth has returned to the States and is living just outside New York City.
Since returning to the States, Ruth has appeared at Carnegie Hall for Michael Feinstein, as well as the Mabel Mercer Foundation Cabaret Convention.
