Virtually no coverage in reliable, independent sources–all I was able to find was some local news coverage in The Yazoo Herald [1]. The article asserts that the subject has won several awards, but after looking each of them up online, it looks like they are insufficiently notable to meet WP:ANYBIO. Does not meet WP:GNG, WP:NAUTHOR. _signed, Rosguill ^talk 23:51, 8 March 2019 (UTC)
