Princess White (January 14, 1881 – March 21, 1976)[1] was an American blues singer, dancer, comedian and vaudeville performer.
Born Princess White in Philadelphia, of part-American Indian descent,[2] she started her career as a child dancer, touring with Salica Bryan and her Pickaninnies nationally and as far as Europe and Australia.
Until the late 1930s, she worked as a touring performer on the Theatre Owners Booking Association (TOBA) circuit, and with such shows as Silas Green from New Orleans.
She worked with such performers as Black Patti, Ida Cox, Butterbeans and Susie, and the Whitman Sisters, and became a headlining act in her own right.
In later years she lived in Newark, New Jersey, where she ran bars and nightclubs before becoming a senior member of her church.
