He is best known for his role as Steve Urkel on the sitcom Family Matters.
The character was originally intended to be a one-time guest appearance on the show; however, he was an instant hit with audiences and White became a regular cast member.
Also during the 1980s, he appeared in a few segments of NBC's One to Grow On.
White had a role in the NBC television film Camp Cucamonga.
At the age of 12, White originated his most famous role, Steve Urkel, on Family Matters.
The role was initially conceived as a one-time guest appearance, but the character proved to be popular and White was given a full-time starring role.
He also played several other members of the Urkel family, including his alter ego Stefan Urquelle and Myrtle Urkel.
During the height of Family Matters' popularity, the character of Urkel was marketed with breakfast cereal (Urkel-Os) and an Urkel doll.
In addition to starring in the series, White also wrote several episodes, including one, at age 19, that was the series' highest rated for that year.
After starting his career at the age of three, White's first television role was a guest stint on The Jeffersons, in 1984.
He later auditioned for the role of Rudy Huxtable on The Cosby Show.

The following year, he was cast as the son of Flip Wilson and Gladys Knight on the CBS sitcom Charlie and Company.

The series aired for a total of nine seasons, from 1989 to 1998.
After Family Matters ended, White went on to star in the short-lived UPN comedy series Grown Ups (1999–2000).
