Biography
White was born in Newark, New Jersey, the daughter of Arthur Zitzner and Eleanor (née Hazard).[1] White's mother and maternal grandmother Eva were both actresses: Eleanor began acting as a child, and continued to do so as an adult, while Eva made her acting debut as a teenager and retired following marriage, later opening a movie theater with her husband.[1] White moved to North Caldwell with her parents at the age of 12.[1] She graduated high school at Grover Cleveland, and studied acting at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts and the American Theater Wing.[1] While acting on stage, Broadway and theater, she served as the personal assistant for Marlene Dietrich, during Dietrich's later career.[1]
After marrying her husband, White retired from acting and became a librarian and outreach specialist at the Livingston Public Library in Livingston, New Jersey.[1] She returned to acting when she was offered the role of Muriel Bagge on Courage the Cowardly Dog.[1] She voiced Muriel during the entire series run, and reprised her role in the 2006 video game Cartoon Network Racing and the 2014 short The Fog of Courage.
