Television documentary series. Fame, when it illuminates the images of people who have already left us, is often just a form of forgetting. Secondary biographical facts, everyday motifs lying on the surface often obscure the deep and always unique relationship between the creative gift and the fate of an outstanding artist. The islands are different. These films ask questions, but do not seek simple answers, enlighten or attempt to explain the unexplained. Their purpose is not to explore the past, but to be present in it. Hence the rejection of any author's comment. Documents and books, film footage, and the heroes themselves are the characters of history who, in a sense, “tell themselves.” close

Biography is a documentary television series. It was originally a half-hour filmed series produced for CBS by David Wolper from 1961 to 1964 and hosted by Mike Wallace. The A&E Network later re-ran it and has produced new episodes since 1987. The older version featured historical figures such as Helen Keller and Mark Twain, or long-dead entertainment figures such as Will Rogers or John Barrymore. The A&E series has placed the emphasis on such people as Marilyn Monroe, Elvis Presley, Plácido Domingo, Freddie Mercury, Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, Eric Clapton, Pope John Paul II, Gene Tierney, Selena, Diego Rivera, Mao Zedong and Queen Elizabeth II, and fictional characters like The Phantom, Superman, Hamlet, Betty Boop, and Santa Claus. The program ended up profiling enough figures that in 1999, A&E spun it off into an entire network, The Biography Channel. close
