Leo White (November 10, 1882 - September 20, 1948) was a stage performer and appeared as a character actor in many Charlie Chaplin films. He started his film career in 1911 and in 1913 moved to the Essanay studio. In 1915, he began appearing in Chaplin's comedies and continued through Chaplin's Mutual Film comedies. His last appearance in a Chaplin film was a small role in The Great Dictator, released in 1940.

White also acted in and directed Triple Trouble, Essanay's last Chaplin release. Chaplin himself acknowledged Triple Trouble in his autobiography but did not actually participate in its production (White filmed new scenes around existing footage of Chaplin).

White typically played dapper, continental villains or noblemen in films, and this typecast him for the rest of his screen career. Well into the 1940s, he was still playing excitable Frenchmen in short subjects and feature films. Before his death in 1948, White had appeared in over 400 films.

Played a wax-moustached villain in early silent movies, including some of the very first Charlie Chaplin shorts.

He had a personal log that indicated that he had worked in almost 2,000 films by the late 1930s, most not credited or recorded.
