I Was a Teenage Banshee is a Künstlerroman by Sue Webster, combining personal memoir with a visual narrative of her evolution as an artist, exploring the ongoing influence of youth, music, popular culture and particularly Siouxsie and the Banshees on her life and work.

The book contains illustrations of more than 300 pieces of ephemera and artwork as she analyses the connections between influence and her art practice. As well as being a cultural history, I Was a Teenage Banshee is a frank and deeply personal memoir, in which Webster examines her teenage years, the difficulties she faced whilst growing up, and her path to becoming, and understanding, what it means to be an artist.
