[edit] About Sam Vandervelde

If Richard Ruscyzk and Sandor Lehoczky can have mathematicians articles, so can Sam Vandervelde. He is the current director of the Mandelbrot competition. Isn't that good enough? I mean, Sam Vandervelde also helped out Richard Ruscyzk and Sandor Lehoczky with The Art of Problem Solving, as is shown in the "Acknowledgements" section of the book.
