Contested PROD - the prod reasoning was, " I cannot find any significant coverage in reliable source to show notability for this unreferenced biography of a living person". Some sources have indeed been added, but I see nothing to show significant coverage; only one looks to be a true independent reliable source (a passing mention in a newspaper), so the same rationale still applies here.

- Keep The University of Florida maintains an archive about her in its library; that sounds pretty notable. Her works were published by major publishers and went into "mass paperback" distribution so must have been good sellers. They were not the type of book that attracts serious reviews, and most were published in the pre-internet era, so I'd give her the benefit of the doubt. --MelanieN (talk) 01:40, 8 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep - Agreed per above that maintenance of an archive of manuscripts in Special Collections of a major university implies notability. The article is a stub which needs expansion, not deletion. Carrite (talk) 16:28, 11 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
