Line 23: ==Character overview== Stanley Bolander was born on July 6, 1944 in North [[~~Hampton~~Hampden]] of [[Baltimore]], [[Maryland]]. Throughout his time on the show, he is partnered with [[John Munch\|Det. John Munch]]. It is generally agreed that Bolander is based on [[Donald Worden]], one of the Baltimore Homicide Department detectives featured in the non-fiction book ''Homicide: A Year on the Killing Street'', on which the series was based. The other members of the squad affectionately refer to Bolander as "The Big Man", a name also used by Worden's colleagues to refer to him in the book. In the fourth-season episode "Scene of the Crime", Munch explains to [[Mike Kellerman]] that the nickname has to do with aspects other than Bolander's weight: "He is in all senses a man of magnitude - enormously fair, tremendously honest, and a whale of a detective."
