Crazy how recognizable this image is. I knew immediately who it was supposed to be! thecomposites: Hiro Protagonist, Snow Crash, Neal Stephenson Hiro has cappuccino skin and spiky, truncated dreadlocks. His hair does not cover as much of his head as it used to, but he is a young man, by no means bald or balding, and the slight retreat of his hairline only makes more of his high cheekbones…. Beneath this image, it is possible to see Hiro’s eyes, which look Asian.  They are from his mother, who is Korean by way of Nippon.  The rest of him looks more like his father, who was African by way of Texas by way of the Army.
