Fails WP:AUTHOR. Author of business books, but has not "created, or played a major role in co-creating, a significant or well-known work, or collective body of work, that has been the subject of an independent book or feature-length film, or of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews." Google News shows he's quoted periodically on relevant subjects but neither he nor his books have received significant coverage in independent sources per WP:GNG.ScottyBerg (talk) 13:50, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

 * Keep, while according to a strict interpretation of our guidelines this article should probably be deleted, I believe in this case we should ignore all rules and keep it. Subject appears to be at the very top of his field and has been quoted many times in the press, eg The Washington Post, CNN and so on. Also his wedding was mention in the New York Times, the guy has got to be notable. doom gaze   (talk)  01:54, 20 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep sufficient media attention to meet the threshold of notability. Chester Markel (talk) 05:05, 20 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep See Articles about him in the NYT One of them actually has the headline: "Head of Tiger Management Considers Taking On a Partner" (July 1, 1997). If the NYT writes an article devoted specifically to the mere possibility of someone taking a parter, that person is clearly very notable. That's substantial coverage way beyond the ordinary. As for reviews, According to Book Review Index,  his Essential Stock Picking Strategies. was listed among the Best Investment Books of 2002 by Barrons ( Jan 6, 2003 v82 i52 p31) and reviewed in Reference & Research Book News Nov 2002 v17 p105; Julian Robertson was reviewed in Traders Jan 1, 2005, in Futures (Cedar Falls, Iowa) July 2005 v34 i9 p79 and in  Reference & Research Book News Feb 2005 v20 i1 p135 .

 * Keep - Eight books published by the ultra-respectable Wiley on hedge funds and like issues makes one a "recognized expert" on an aspect of human enterprise and worthy of encyclopedic biography. Carrite (talk) 14:12, 21 May 2011 (UTC)
