Japanese Tommy, between 1855 and 1865. Creator: Unknown
Japanese Tommy, between 1855 and 1865. [African-American entertainer, sometimes billed as the African Tom Thumb and the African Dwarf Tommy.
Dilwards stature may have allowed him to appear on stage with whites at a time when almost no black men did. He sang, danced and played the violin, and is thought to have invented the word hunky-dory. His stage name of Japanese Tommy may have been intended to hide his ethnic background]
