周仲眉（1902-1966），名介壽，字仲眉，以字行。原籍貴州麻江，自其祖輩開始遷居四川。自幼在家塾學習古文，後赴北京入讀北平交通大學鐵道管理學院。1927年，與陳鸝（字戊雙， 1904-1999）結婚。1931年，周仲眉畢業後，與妻女回到重慶，於中國銀行的重慶分行從事四川省經濟調查和金融研究，並參與編輯《四川月報》、《四川經濟叢刊》、《四川旅行叢刊》等刊物。周氏於1935 年獲派赴日本考察金融及商務，回國後調派至中國銀行總行經濟研究室任研究員，舉家遷居上海。後來，周氏一家重回重慶。至 1951年，周仲眉被調往中國銀行總行國外部任職，周氏一家便定居北京。

周仲眉與陳鸝愛好崑曲，夫婦二人業餘常在家唱曲。1940年，周仲眉被調任至重慶北碚的中國銀行辧事處工作。夫婦在北碚住處唱曲，引來文化界人士和崑曲同好（如戴夏、汪東、盧前、張充和、程虛白等）陸續加入，經常於周家舉行曲會。周家曲會一直舉辦至抗戰勝利後，曲友陸續還鄉，活動才告終。
