== german ancestor, Neumann and Fetzer == |
|
|
|
|
|
His family name is defenitely neither ungarian nor polish, it is a typical german name "Neumann". So, yes, his father must have german speaking ancestors like germans or from austria-ungarian. And his mother, born Fetzer had a german name too. |

== Education section == |
|
|
|
|
|
I'm confused by the following, from the "education" section: |
|
|
"He later attended the ] for one year, before moving to New York City to study under ] at the ]. ] wrote that Newman initially was hesitant to leave New York for Hollywood, and that Newman had said, "Too close to the cake. Also, no place to study." Newman arrived in New York City in 1951 with his first wife, Jackie Witte, taking up residence in the ] section of ]." |
|
|
|
|
|
Newman moved to New York, and then the following statement is about his hesitancy to leave for Hollywood? Is the implication that he then moved right away? (he did not, of course) The presence of "initially" makes things harder to understand. Maybe, the place was supposed to be "Connecticut" as Newman had just graduated from Kenyon College, or, the word "initially" was meant to be "often" (or not even there at all) as the cited source says that "he had come West to make a movie, but did not expect to stay any longer than necessary". Perhaps the sentence is OK, but as written it comes off a bit confusing. ] (]) 02:30, 16 October 2023 (UTC) |

in german language there exists no Newman, but Neumann. Newman ist the english translated version of the german family name Neumann. So imo his grandfather changed his name in this english version by immigrating in USA.
wiki: As of 2023 it is the 18th most common surname in Germany. 2003:CA:A707:E100:54E6:91BC:9DA6:22D0 (talk) 12:07, 10 March 2024 (UTC)
