Career

After his graduation from Rhode Island School of Design in 1979, White moved to New York, where he began his professional career as a photographer.

After 40 trips to South America in a four year period on travel assignments, he hit upon a jackpot. "I was very interested in doing music and Hollywood and moving into lots of younger magazines like "Guitar" and little pop magazines. I marched some of my South American work to "Rolling Stone" and won an assignment to do Yoko Ono," White says, recalling how he surprisingly kick started his dream.

His work has also been seen on album covers for musicians such as Bruce Springsteen, Aretha Franklin and Jon Bon Jovi. [http://www.photographerslimitededitions.com/index.php?cPath=1_135&bio=1]
