Keep. Added mention in a Foreign Affairs book review. Bard College website history section describes its bringing in "distinguished writers, artists, intellectuals, and scientists fleeing Europe. Among these émigrés were ... labor economist Adolf Sturmthal". Quite likely more notable than easily accessible sources may reveal. Keep to dig deeper.

Adding to this, Internet Archive search turns up 377 hits for Adolf Sturmthal, means he's either written or been written about that much. Either way very likely fairly notable. Hyperbolick (talk) 22:38, 22 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Added six books with many reviews. Pass of WP:AUTHOR. In addition the named professorship is a pass of WP:PROF and an obituary in the NYT is usually a clear sign of notability. —David Eppstein (talk) 19:08, 22 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Clearly a case of WP:CONTN. Passes WP:BIO. Worth noting his archive is maintained at the IISG here. (Disclosure - I created the article).--Goldsztajn (talk) 09:39, 23 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
