JACQUELINE WHITE | 99

Jacqueline White attended a drama class at UCLA when a casting director discovered her. That led to her film debut in the 1944 war film, Song of Russia. White was known to portray lead roles in B-movies and has worked for both RKO and MGM, two of the biggest film production companies, in the 1940s and 1950s. White also had a short career in show business, having 25 film credits, and worked only for a decade in the industry. It was known that she retired in 1952 to focus on her family life. She and her now late husband have five children together.

Back in the days, White and famous actress Lynn Merrick were childhood friends. However, they have not seen each other when White moved to another city. However, fate brought the two old friends back when they were both cast in Three Hearts for Julia in 1943. Despite being retired, White can be seen at the annual TCM Classic Film Festival.
