AUTOBIOGRAPHY
A biography is a detailed description or account of someone's life. More than a list of basic facts (born, education, work, relationships, live and death), biography also portrays the subject's experience of those events. Unlike a profile or curriculum vitae (résumé), a biography presents the subject's life story, including intimate details of experience and personality.
An autobiography is written by the subject himself.
