Rose Collis is a well-published professional biographer, the author of A Trouser-Wearing Character: The Life and Times of Nancy Spain (Cassell 1997 & 1999) and Colonel Barker's Monstrous Regiment: A Tale of Female Husbandry (Virago 2000 & 2001) inter alia.
Another book, by Barbara Angell, The Coral Browne Story: Theatrical Life and Times of a Lustrous Australian, was self-published in June 2007.
Peter Quilter wrote a play for four actors called Mrs Vincent Price, which was apparently performed by La Mama, Melbourne, in about 2010.
