This article was originally written by User:MariRich, but being a new user, when the text got some negative criticism, she got discouraged. In addition to the arguments she puts forward in favour of the subject's notability (see Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Russ Spiegel), the following might be adduced:
In The Naked Brothers Band (TV series), all those listed as making a cameo appearance are linked — except for Russ Spiegel. This in itself would make an article desirable.
In Arun Luthra, the Russ Spiegel Jazz Orchestra is mentioned, as is the Russ Spiegel Sextet (Luthra is a member, [1]). This might lead to information demand on the part of the reader.
In the allmusic database, there is a biography of Spiegel ([2]).
