Comment: Does not meet WP:GNG criteria - no significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. Three of the five sources are routine reporting with passing mentions of Brandstein - not about her - and all three are focused on The Lost Weekend (beware of subjects notable for one thing, per WP:ONEEVENT). Brandstein's own website is not a reliable source. Subject does not meet WP:CREATIVE criteria. Paul W (talk) 23:03, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
