So, what is a biography?
A biography is an account of someone’s
life written by someone else.
Biographies provide an account of the subject’s life
from the earliest days of their childhood right up to the
present day or their death if the subject is deceased.
The job of a biography is more than just to outline the
bare facts of a person’s life.
Rather than just listing the basic details of their
upbringing, hobbies, education, work, relationships,
and death, a well-written biography should also paint a
picture of the subject’s personality and as well as their
experience of life.
How is a biography structured?
You need to hook the reader
from the first sentence
itself
Malala yousafzai
Malala Yousafzai is a young
Pakistani Human Rights Activist
who became a household name
after being shot thrice for daring
to pursue education under the
rule of the Taliban.
Sequencing
In most cases, biographies are
written in chronological order.
You need to focus on:
Early life
Education
Influences
Accomplishments
Relationships
Conclusion
Wrap your biography up with some
details about what the person is doing
now if they are still alive. If they have
passed away, make mention of what
impact they have made and what
their legacy is or will be.
