As a kid I laughed and watched her antics in the popular tv comedy My Little Margie. In the series, which aired from 1952 to 1956, Ms. Storm played the part of Margie Albright, the 21 year old daughter of Vernon Albright (Charles Farrell), an investment counselor of the firm Honeywell & Todd. Vernon, a widower and Margie resided on 5th Avenue, New York. Margie's main purpose in life was to help her father out, usually resulting in quite the opposite outcome and always with good, clean fun and humor. The show has been compared to other sitcoms of that era, I Married Joan, Life With Elizabeth, all inspired by the success of I Love Lucy. She went on to play in another series comedy, The Gale Storm Show-Oh Susanna, where she played Susanna Pomeroy, the social director of the ocean liner S.S. Ocean Queen. Mitz, Rich.
