Betty White before the entertainment industry
Betty Marion White was born on January 17th of 1922 in Oak Park, Illinois.
She graduated from high school in 1939, the same exact year the Second World War broke out.
Although White immediately found acting and modeling work after leaving school, the war would put her career on hold while she aided transport of military supplies in California.
After the war, Betty tried to break into the film industry in Los Angeles but was rejected by all the major studios.
According to Betty, she wasn’t photogenic enough and so she turned to radio instead.
As a radio performer, White made decent money although it’s not exactly certain how much she made.
