Luminous Wolf-Rayet stars at low metallicity

The evolution of massive stars in very low metallicity galaxies is less well observationally constrained than in environments more similar to the Milky Way, M33, or the LMC. We discuss in this contribution the current state of our program to search for and characterize Wolf-Rayet stars (and other massive emission line stars) in low metallicity galaxies in the Local Volume.
