Albert H. Munsell was born in Boston, Massachusetts, on January 6, 1858 and died on June 24, 1918.

When Albert Munsell went back to Massachusetts, he became a teacher of drawing and painting from antique figures, models, composition and anatomy.

The share owners of the stock besides Albert Munsell were Arthur Allen and Ray Greenleaf.

Alexander no longer had time to worry about the business aspect of his company when he was focusing on researching.

Those trustees were appointed to represent the color interests of science and educational fields.

Before, X-Rite was primary working on the products related to the processing of film and x-rays.
