This subject fails WP:N. Except for a single source in the Harvard Crimson, the remaining sources on his life come from his father's obituary. A Google Search and a Google News/News Archive search fail to demonstrate any independent notability outside of his father. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2607:FEA8:5A40:325:925:D136:FCDF:353B (talk) 13:26, 22 March 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete. The only media coverage I could find about him personally, rather than mentions in coverage of his parents, is a minor dispute over an undeserved merit raise of $4800. I also couldn't find any corroboration for (or even proof of the existence of) an Associated Press Award for "Best California documentary". Clarityfiend (talk) 22:34, 22 March 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete I gave it a careful read, but did not find much. For example, Windswept House was a small publishing house described in the past tense in his mother's obit in the NYTimes "Windswept, named after the family’s home on Mount Desert Island and based there, published 120 titles, of which she wrote about a dozen." He very likely did manage it for a time before her death in 2009 at the age of 91. I don't see any notability in his various activities, he appears to have lived a quiet, respectable life. Of course, he's hard to search because he shares a famous name, so, if anybody does find sources, feel free to ping me to reconsider.E.M.Gregory (talk) 16:59, 28 March 2018 (UTC)
