Christine Coulson worked at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York for over twenty-five years and wrote hundreds of wall labels for the galleries during her time there. As Coulson composed those texts, she dreamt of using the Met's rigorous 75-word-label format to describe people. Her first experiment with this idea described an imaginary patrician woman called Kitty, who eventually became the unlikely protagonist of One Woman Show.
