  1. It is not possible (as per POSIX standards) to access the creation date/time of a file. Check this link
    Quote:
    Each file has three distinct associated timestamps: the time of last data access, the time of last data modification, and the time the file status last changed. These values are returned in the file characteristics structure struct stat.
  2. You could try looking at the -mtime option. Here you cannot specify dates, but you should specify the number of days. You could do a little maths to find this out.
