Biography
Born in 1857, William White stepped in front of the camera just as the silent era roared to life, brandishing a résumé that includes the swashbuckling serials *The Purple Mask* (1916), the frontier tale *Sheriff of Sun Dog* (1922), and the high-seas adventure *The Fighting Skipper* (1923). His final curtain fell on 21 April 1933 in Los Angeles, California, the city that had become the cradle—and grave—of early Hollywood dreams.
