June 21, 1986: At the Raleigh Hotel, a Borscht Belt resort in South Fallsburg, N.Y., Barry Frank, a classic tummler — “the hyperkinetic combination of entertainer, social director, merrymaker and matchmaker” — led a dance class. He was joined in emceeing the summer’s festivities by “an exercise and positive-thinking guru named High Voltage, sort of Norman Vincent Peale’s brain in Tina Turner’s body,” The Times reported. “ ‘Is your energy up?’ she demands of a group of women wearing T-shirts commemorating the 65th anniversary of their husbands’ lodge. ‘Honey,’ one of them responds, ‘my energy’s always up.
