I'm impressed by his accomplishments, but I'm hard-pressed to see |notability here. He's certainly successful, but accomplishment is not notability. He has published books, but I can't find reviews (they would likely be in trade magazines, to be sure). He has patents, but we have no independent attribution of their importance. There's an assertion that large organizations have made use of his work without any attribution to back it up. And three interviews in connection with two projects is not a lot. I guess if I got ''anything'' when I googled his name (in News Archive, or Books, I'd feel more confident. When I look at his papers in Google Scholar, there's no evidence of citation. Sorry to melt the snow, but I just don't see the notability, even with all the primary sources. We need secondary sources, because we're an encyclopedia
