Did Marcelo misread 'Whitmann' as 'Whiteman' or something? --FFN 01:03, 8 July 2007 (UTC)
- I speculate that Anthony Anderson hadn't been cast yet when Marcelo was doing illustrations- Dygert is a German name after all. So is Whitman originally, but it's also a common English name, which makes it more likely as an African American surname than Dygert. (To clarify; I speculate his character's name was changed when he was cast.)
- I haven't been able to find a single prominent Whitman who was black, except Dane Whitman of course.
- Does the Whitmann spelling show up in the novel, or is it a imdb perversion? That spelling appears completely fictional. -Derik 20:34, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
