*'''Delete''' NN, I phoned the Maude Kearns Center, and it is indeed a national art competition held each year - there is distinction in that.

He is also portrayed as a travel writer, yet I couldn't find anything published, or released on the internet. I checked out his site, and his photography is indeed good work.

Non-notable photographer. Serious WP:COI at work as well, user has also created Oregon primate rescue which is up for speedy deletion was speedied as copyvio. "Further Reading" section has nothing to do with photographer, no reliable sources to be seen. Also contains a fair amount of spamlinks.

- Delete per WP:BIO. Primary claim of notability is donating $4000 to a monkey charity. Seems like a nice guy, but not even close to being an encyclopedic article subject. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 00:11, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
- Delete. I've researched the "galleries" that he cites. Maude Kerns describes itself as a community centre, Six Days is a sales co-op. Caffe Armadia is a coffee shop. Altman Gallery seems to be a legitimate art gallery, but doesn't seem to have a website. And there are so many things called "Phoenix Literary Journal" that I can't tell if this one is in Tennessee or Auckland NZ. He's cited in various blogs, including many of his own. This doesn't add up to any shows in notable galleries, no reputable third-party criticism, nothing that would lead me to believe he meets WP:BIO, WP:Notable or WP:Verifiable.

- Delete. Non-notable PR site. Renee 01:45, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
- Delete - NN, POV, questionable references, like co-op gallery as mentioned above. Iamchrisryan 10:57, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
