Copyright Law
  All States      
How long is copyright protection valid on new works?

Length of copyright protection can be complex, but generally lasts for the life of the author plus 70 years. Thus if the author is now age 21 and lives 75 more years, copyright protection would last for 125 years.

You should consult the copyright office or an attorney for information about your particular situation.
