- Theodor "Tettu" Mauritz Jacob Weissman, ursprungligen Weissmann, född 1 januari 1891 i Tavastehus, död 29 mars 1966 i Helsingfors, var en finländsk kuplett- och schlagersångare, sångtextförfattare och operettskådespelare. Weissman skrev sig även Teddy Weissman, Theo Weissman och Th. Weissmann. Weissman var på 1920-talet en av Finlands mest kända kuplettsångare och var en mycket aktiv skådespelare med både operetter och lustspel på sin repertoar. Hans skådespelarkarriär inleddes omkring 1913 och varade fram till 1930-talet. Under den tiden var han verksam vid flera teatrar och skådespelarensembler. Som kuplettsångare uppträdde han på biografer, kaféer och restauranger runt om i landet. På 1910- och 1920-talen gjorde han en stor mängd skivinspelningar och var en aktiv sångare under grammofonfebern 1929. När kuplettgenren gick ur mode på slutet av 1920-talet försökte Weissman anpassa sig till schlagermusiken, men övergav inom kort den konstnärliga banan för att ägna sig åt reklamverksamhet och diverse affärer. I sin samtid var Weissman välkänd som en första klassens gentleman som ständigt under sina uppträdanden var iklädd frack, fluga och cylinderhatt. Han beskrevs som en mästare av den humoristiska genren. (sv)
