Boston doesn't have this one, sigh.  But I shall keep looking, it has peaked 
my interest.

Kellie,

Apart from the requested 84-page biography added to
the Wish List, Christina Olson: Her World Beyond the
Canvas by Jean Olson, the TInyURL to the online
article I read is http://tinyurl.com/cvjrj (I wonder
if they change each time one requestws a tiny URL or
stay the same). The real one is very long:
