Eugene Ferdinand Walter, Jr.
(November 30, 1921 – March 29, 1998) was an American screenwriter, poet, short-story author, actor, puppeteer, gourmet chef, cryptographer, translator, editor, costume designer and well-known raconteur.
During his years in Paris, he was nicknamed Tum-te-tum.
His friend Pat Conroy observed that Walter had lived a "pixilated wonderland of a life." Walter was labeled "Mobile's Renaissance Man" because of his diverse activities in many areas of the arts.
In later life, he maintained a connection with Mobile by carrying a shoebox of Alabama red clay around Europe.
