Streaming Stars, Then and Now

Warm, charming leading lady of 1940s films, Jacqueline White was under contract to both MGM (which wasted her in mostly unbilled bits) and then RKO, where she appeared in two classics--Crossfire (1947) and The Narrow Margin (1952). RKO used her as a second lead in A pictures and leading roles in Bs.

She retired in 1950 upon her marriage to Bruce Anderson and they relocated to Wyoming, where her husband started an oil business. When she returned to Los Angeles for the birth of her first child, she was spotted in the RKO commissary visiting friends by director Richard Fleischer and producer Stanley Rubin, who offered her a co-starring role in "The Narrow Margin". The film, widely acknowledged to be one of the classics of "film noir", sat on the RKO shelf for two years while studio boss Howard Hughes considered whether to extensively edit it or re-shoot it as an "A" with Robert Mitchum and Jane Russell. Eventually, selected scenes were reshot and added in December 1951, nearly a year after the film had originally wrapped--she was flown out from her home in Casper, Wyoming, for these added scenes--and the film was, thankfully, spared any more of Hughes' "improvements". It was released mostly intact due to director Fleischer's striking a deal with Hughes to release the picture without further changes in return for Fleischer's reshooting the end of His Kind of Woman (1951).

Long retired from the film industry, Jacqueline has recently begun appearing at film festivals and conventions.

Her first part for RKO was performing a sneeze for <a class="ipc-md-link ipc-md-link--entity" href="/name/nm0686032/?ref_=nmtrv_trv">Zasu Pitts</a>.

Jacqueline White usually played either featured actresses in B movies or supporting parts in A-movies. White was under contract to both Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, where she was cast mostly in uncredited small roles.

White, at the age of 17, signed on a film contract at Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer and subsequently with RKO, where she found her greatest success and is perhaps best remembered for her roles in films Crossfire (1947), Banjo (1947) , Mystery in Mexico (1948) and The Narrow Margin (1952).

White occasionally appeared at film conventions. In 2013, she made an appearance at the annual TCM Classic Film Festival.

She left the film industry in 1952 and relocated to Wyoming with her husband, who started an oil business.

Her first lead role came in Air Raid Wardens (1943) starring Laurel and Hardy.

White and actress Lynn Merrick were childhood friends until White moved. They were reunited when both were in the cast of Three Hearts for Julia (1943).

White&#39;s film debut resulted from her work in a drama class at UCLA.

She attended Beverly Hills High School and the University of California, Los Angeles.
