Non notable executive and author. The books are self-published--see WorldCat [ww.worldcat.org/search?qt=worldcat_org_all&q=Danita+Johnson+Hughes]. The awards areboth local and trivial. The references are just local publicity, except 1. which is a mention 2. Kirkus, which is an unreliable source for self-published books--they review them only if the author pays. 3. which tho a major station is still local and a interview clearly for promotional purposes.

Delete -- a glorified CV and a sales prospectus. Whenever I see "professional speaker" in the infobox and / or lead, there's a strong suspicion that the article has been created for promotional purposes. Wikipedia is not a free "speaker bureau" to be used to solicit speaking gigs for nn individuals. K.e.coffman (talk) 20:30, 3 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. This person got her doctorate from an online university. The puffery therein asserts she's a "certified trainer and speaker" yet I'm unaware of any such recognized credential. Wikipedia is a charity, not a free web host for speakers seeking fees. Bearian (talk) 23:38, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
