Fails Wikipedia:Notability guidelines. I cannot see what is remotely significant about this subject. Being part of the production crew on two of the Superman movies is not enough to warrant an article of his own. The only other film he appears to have had any other (minor) involvement in (decades later) is a 20-minute short, which only has seven reviews on imdb. The communications firm he founded is not notable, and appears to have shut down over ten years ago. Nothing else he has done makes him notable in any way. Being on various boards/ singing in choirs sounds more like a hobby than a sign of notability. This content would be more appropriate on LinkedIn. Andromer (talk) 11:46, 9 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. More than sufficient to establish notability. A business executive, performer, author and co-author of two books, with twenty-three inline cites from major sources listing details of his career. Roman Spinner *(talk • contribs) 12:52, 9 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
