Jesco White
Jesco White, also known as the "Dancing Outlaw" (born July 30, 1956) is an American mountain west Virginia
dancer and entertainer. He is best known as the subject of three American documentary films that detail his desire to follow in his famous father's footsteps, while trying to overcome depression, drug addiction and the poverty that persistently afflicts rural Appalachia.
==Personal life==
Jesco White was born in Bandytown, a tiny community located in the Appalachian Mountains of Boone County, West Virginia, to Donald Ray White (1927–1985), also known as D. Ray White, and Bertie Mae White. White's father, D. Ray, was profiled in the Smithsonian Folkways documentary ''Talking Feet: Solo Southern Dance: Buck, Flatfoot and Tap'' (1987) as one of the greatest mountain dancers in the United States. Following in the footsteps of his father, Jesco's dance style is a subtle mix of tap and clog dancing that is native to Appalachia. After the death of his father, Jesco attained D. Ray's tapping shoes which he wears while performing. Jesco White's dancing has been featured in at least three documentaries.
White was married to Norma Jean White (1938-2009) and married Alida Darvill in 2011.
