Explanation:

A biography can be either authorized or unauthorized. An authorized biography means that the biographer had the cooperation of either the subject or the subject’s living representatives when the biography was researched and written. The biographer usually has full access to the subject's personal records. It means that the subject or the subject’s representatives read and approved the final work. The people involved in giving authorization might have asked that certain information be left out. This can affect the reliability of the biography. An unauthorized biography is usually written without the support or approval of the subject or the subject’s representatives. The biographer may or may not have full access to the subject's personal records. Even with a biographer who did not personally know the subject, you should question the author’s purpose in writing the biography.   Did the author want to discover something hidden or unknown about who the person was and share it with the world?   Or did the author simply want to write something that would sell a lot of books? Types of Biographer  the subject (autobiography)  someone who knew the subject personally (firsthand biography)   a researcher or historian who had no personal knowledge of the subject   A biography is a record of a person’s life written by someone else. An autobiography is a record of a person’s life written by that person. The words are based on ancient Greek root words. Bio means “life” and graph means “to record or write.” Therefore, biography means “a record of someone’s life.” Auto means “self,” so autobiography means “a record of one’s own life.” Together, these two types of writing make up the category of biographical writing, which is writing that is about a person’s life.  Biographical writing is a form of expository writing. This means it is nonfiction meant to inform or entertain. If you think you have never read a biography for the fun of it, think again. Have you ever read articles about your favorite singers, movie stars, or athletes? The articles could have been about who they are dating, what they are like at home, or how their childhood affected them later in life.  Articles are one form of biographical writing that you may come across almost every day.  Biographers are people who write biographies. Generally, they write biographies because they are interested in the people about whom they are writing. A biography can be written while the subject is still alive, or it can be written long after the subject has died. Regardless of when the biography is written, it should be based on facts. Remember, biography is a form of expository, or nonfiction, writing meant to inform or entertain.  When you think of what a biography is, you probably think of writing that tells about a person’s entire life. However, biographical writing can be limited to just one aspect of, or event in, a person’s life.
