Biography
An actress from childhood, London-born Carol White made her film bow in 1959 in the Carry On series. In her twenties, White cornered the market in sluttish working-class heroines, notably in the TV dramas Up the Junction and Cathy Come Home. She gained international film stardom as the promiscuous leading lady in Poor Cow (1967), and she continued appearing in worthwhile efforts like Daddy's Gone A-Hunting (1969). Her career went into decline in the late '60s and early '70s. Carol White died of a drug overdose at the age of 49. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
