American singer, musician
Dapper, mustachioed country singer whose career has spanned almost six decades. Known for his phenomenal high notes and yodeling ability.
He was awarded a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame for Recording at 1709 Vine Street in Hollywood, California.
Outside of country fandom, Whitman is, arguably, best known for Tim Burton s use of a song of his in the 1996 sci-fi parody, Mars Attacks! . Whitmans voice is discovered to be the secret weapon against the little green men.
Recorded "Mockin Bird Hill (Auf der Alm in Tirol".
