Gregg Rickman assumes in To the High Castle, Philip K. Dick: A Life 1928-1962 Teddy to be a pseudonym of Philip K. Dick that he then would have used for 17 poems published in The Berkeley Daily Gazette in the years 1943-1945 (Rickman cites four more poems in the text of his monography, all of them non-genre). This is further sustained by the notion in chapter 1 of Lawrence Sutin's Divine Invasins: A Life of Philip K. Dick that the author used the nickname 'Teddy' as a child and via thematical & chronological correspondencies.
