Biography
Jerry White Jr. has been making films since he was a teenager, getting his start with public access television in Metro Detroit during the early 90s.

As a director, actor, and producer, he has screened at over a hundred film festivals worldwide, winning numerous awards and securing international distribution for 20 Years of Madness, a film more than two decades in the making.
