BIOGRAPHIES OF ACCOMPLISHED PEOPLE fill many categories. They have aspects of history, classic literature, comedy, tragedy, farce, even fiction. And more: “We have escapist fiction,” said John Kenneth Galbraith, “so why not escapist biography.” People with unique personalities who led notable lives – Mark Twain, Winston Churchill, Maria Callas, to name just three – have something to teach us, lessons from which we can profit by their trial and error. A well-researched and written biography allows you to live with the person in the comfort of your easy chair and vicariously experience their life. There are sub-categories of this genre: autobiography and memoir. The former typically attempts to provide a full picture, the latter usually will focus on a limited time period. Both will be opinionated, of course, unlike a bio written by someone else, although even then the author can’t help but reveal his own perception of his subject. Then there’s autobiographical novels, such as Gore Vidal’s work on Burr and Lincoln, both of which succeed in making their subjects more real than the typical bio. In sum, all biography is history come alive.
