John T. White (1856–1924) was a native of Frederick County, Maryland, known both for his extended service as a school administrator and superintendent and also for his work as a poet. His poem "Maryland, My Maryland," written in 1894 as an alternate set of lyrics for the Maryland state song has been considered by the Maryland General Assembly in the past to officially replace the existing lyrics by James Ryder Randall, which have been criticized for their Confederate sympathies and martial tone. All attempts to make White's work the official state song have failed, the most recent being in 2016.
