This article has been speedied once before, nominated for speedy when it reappeared (that nomination was declined because a "credible assertion of significance"); prodded as an unreferenced BLP (at which point an earnest editor found the sole reference to the person's bio on their corporate website). So, we come to AFD. This is a biography of a graphic designer with no special claims to notability. Claims of awards won cannot be verified (the relevant websites make no mention of this person).

 * Delete as non-notable. Unless the award claims can be verified.--Ethicoaestheticist (talk) 22:44, 17 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Delete Can't find any reliable 3rd-party references. Can't find any mention of him at the American Institute of Graphic Arts, found him as a member at the Art Directors Club of New York (but can't find any mention of awards), no mention at the Type Directors Club that I can see, and I can't find anything about "Design International" in Paris - there's a Design International, but that doesn't appear to have a Paris office. The only reference given just repeats the award claims without providing any details or references -- Boing!   said Zebedee  12:05, 22 April 2010 (UTC)
