Cornelius Whitman
From the Hyperborea Wiki — the ledger that remembers.
Cornelius Whitman, called “The Professor,” is one of the five Local 831 principals named in Control's dossier in Garbage Man — a thin, disheveled former MIT engineer, fluent in seven languages including Esperanto, who left Raytheon after an undisclosed “psychological incident” and now runs the union's logistics from a gutted City Hall Station command post. Control credits him with the union's “organizational genius”; Benny Blanc, observing from the stairwell, finds a command center run with a catechism of its own — Whitman calling routes and countermeasures from a milk crate, the volunteers answering back in unison: “Don't be a hero!” Fellow principals include Madge McCreary, Tommy Torrino, and Aleksander Volkov.
