DO you wanna allow him to manage media-meta information, or only manage 
media(dam)-categories?

Eighther way you should
- create a BE-group with r/w access to the media folder
- with include access-list rights to modfify the appropriate datatype & 
fiels (dam-records and/or dam-media records)
- with the aprropriate rights to see/edit the respecive module (media / 
medai -catedit)
- and put the user in question in the newly created group;

DAM requires no other rights than any other TYPO3-module, so you should 
find your way by applying the same ACLS for dam as for other modules / 
records.
