Otto Funk (October 6, 1868 – February 6, 1934) was a German-American fiddler who gained fame as "the Walking Fiddler" in the Guinness Book of World Records for playing his Hopf violin every step of the way as he walked from New York to San Francisco in 1929, a trip of 4,165 miles. He was 61 years old at the time of his marathon walk. He stood five feet two inches tall, and weighed approximately 100 pounds.
