Nothing better convincing for any applicable notability and the best I've found are expected mentions at Books, News and Highbeam and simply nothing to suggest the improvements needed (I will say I found several acceptable sources at News, but the coverage is not sufficiently solid).

 * Speedy keep recommend Nom User:SwisterTwister to withdraw this. El Hai passes WP:AUTHOR.  I only  had to go as far as googling the first book mentioned in the article,  The Lobotomist    Plenty of  reviews in RS to support an article on this title, thereby establishing notability of author. Article does need improvement, sourcing.E.M.Gregory (talk) 16:46, 23 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep. Some of his work seems significant: The Nazi and the psychiatrist and The Lobotomist are each in over 500 libraries ,according to worldcat . DGG ( talk ) 22:06, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
