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.
