Biography: a love affair or a job?

Article Abstract:

Biographers do not necessarily have to like their subject at the outset of a project, but they can end up liking them by the end of the project after spending so much time dissecting aspects of their lives. Biographers usually immerse themselves in the lives of their subjects, but do not become overly friendly with them, as this can color the finished work.
