My sense is there IS such a person but there is nothing being written about him, at least that I can find.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 00:37, 4 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Follow up. Two sources have been identified in The Standard; inline citations have been added. Article could use more sources but it's acceptable at this point.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 14:02, 4 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
