Interview and biographical article on Tempest Storm, a famous burlesque performer of the 1950s. Born Annie Blanche Banks, Storm left her home in Georgia at the age of 14 and eventually made her way to California where she began her career. She became a headliner on the burlesque circuit, through which she frequently performed at the Folly Theater in Kansas City. Storm returned to the Folly in 1981 for the theater's dedication after it was refurbished, and again in 2014 for the Kansas City Burlesque Festival at the age of 86.
