Jack D. White (1927-2012) was born in San Angelo, Texas. White worked briefly for the Fort Worth Press as a sports writer covering high school sports and received a B.A. in Journalism from Texas Christian University in 1949. After graduating, he began an advertising career as copywriter and art director at Yates Advertising Agency in Fort Worth. In 1954, he joined the Witherspoon and Ridings Public Relations Agency in Fort Worth, which later became Witherspoon and Associates, at the time the largest advertising agency in town. White specialized in design, type management, and photography and developed their in-house facilities for darkroom work, studio photography, and slide show presentations. White retired from Witherspoon and Associates in 1981 and formed his own company, Jack White Enterprises, which specialized in freelance art and photography. In 1984, the firm's name changed to VJS Companies, and the company added new services, including typography and photostats. The firm closed for a brief period in 1991 but reopened later in the year as Jack White Graphic Arts.
