Jane Douglass White was an American Women's Army Corps officer, music educator and songwriter who wrote several songs during World War II to promote the corps; Captain Douglass was selected in 1944 to command the first all-woman Special Service company. One of her songs, originally entitled "The WAAC is in Back of You", was adapted after the war into the official "Song of the Women's Army Corps". She was also a prolific songwriter and music director for stage and television. She was an assistant producer with Harry Salter for the 50's edition of television's "Name That Tune".
