Whitman's theatrical debut came when he carried a spear behind an actor portraying King Richard III in a production in Indianapolis. Allen Vosburgh, he was the leading man in the film Princess of the Dark (1917). Soon after that, he changed his screen name to Alfred Whitman because "1917 was not a good time to have a German sounding name."
