Fails WP:GNG most of the sources are obituaries 3 of other people and 1 of him. There is no indepth coverage whatsoever. Nothing in the article suggests that he achieved anything that is notable enough to warrant an article. The main claim to significance is having had a letter published in the NY times. This I think is not enough. Dom from Paris (talk) 11:05, 28 April 2018 (UTC)
