Dean White (born 1924) is an entrepreneur from Crown Point, Indiana. His father challenged him to "make a million dollars by your 40th birthday". White claims that he's "Missed, at the most, 12 days of work since 1946." [citation needed]

In 1946 he joined his father's billboard business Whiteco Advertising Company, and took over in 1952. White sold his billboard business to Chancellor for $960 million in 1998. [citation needed]

White is a major Republican donor, and donated $1 million to American Crossroads in the 2012 campaign cycle. White has supported numerous Indiana Republicans, including Brian Bosma, and has also donated money to the House Republican Campaign Committee of Indiana.[1]
