Draft:Anton C. Heidrick

  • Comment: Notability has not been established for this person who was simply doing his job as a trumpet player and Army documentary photographer and as a commercial photographer. As a photographer his work is not held in any notable art museums nor national galleries of art. The collections that own his work is because of the subject matter he photographed, not because his work has artistic merit and was curated into important museum collections. I can't see how they would meet NARTIST, NMUSICBIO nor GNG. Netherzone (talk) 02:36, 2 July 2024 (UTC)
