- catalog description "Although she enjoyed teaching physical education, Wolfe desired to earn a living as an artist. She attended the University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry, earning her degree in medical illustration in 1955. From 1960 to 1985, she worked at the Scheie Eye Institute at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine as an instructor of medical art, specializing in ophthalmology. After leaving the Scheie Eye Institute in 1985, Wolfe struggled to make a living outside the professional world. Diagnosed with various medical conditions and severe depression, Wolfe battled alcoholism and an addiction to prescription drugs. A self-described "mid-century gentleman butch," Wolfe's lesbian relationships with women were often tumultuous. Writing on notepads or speaking her feelings on audiocassette tapes, she struggled to find a sense of balance in her life. Jean Wolfe died on May 7, 1997.".

After earning a bachelor's degree in physical education in 1947 from Russell Sage College in Troy, New York, Wolfe worked as an instructor at Pembroke College at Brown University, teaching swimming and personal exercise under the supervision of Bessie Huntting Rudd. From 1950 to 1952, Wolfe was head of the physical education department at the Kimberley School, a private girls' school in Montclair, New Jersey.".
