People are humans and persons. We interact with society. We have thoughts and emotions. We work. We play. We come from Earth and we are still taking out first baby steps into space. "Where do we come from?" and "Where are are going?" are questions only our species is intelligent enough to ask. These are some of the reason why biographies fascinate us.
A Biography (from the Greek words bios meaning life, and graphein meaning write) is a review of an individual's life. While a biography is usually about a real person, it may also be about a fictional character. As opposed to a profile or curriculum vitae, a biography develops complex insight and highlights different textures of personality including intimate details of experiences. A biography is more than a list of facts like birth, education, work, relationships and death. It also delves into the emotions of experiencing such events.
