Her email address that I've used for over 10 years bounced back today.

Was there an error message? Could be that there is a temporary glitch with the provider, a full mailbox etc.

Perhaps write to her publishers and explain that her usual email is bouncing and whether they have an alternate address for her?

Joy's 90th birthday was last week. She is physically frail, but very attentive and lucid. I found the correct email address and we "talked" 3 times in December.

Robert, could you tell us more for those of us as unfamiliar with her work as I was?

The Wikipedia entry pretty much covers her. Except she will be in the UK Archives with her life's notes and photos.
 
Try 100 things. 2 will work out, but you will never know in advance which 2. This tiny ad might be one:
